Salman Rushdie’s anthology contributions span thirty years, from Granta 3: The End of the English Novel in 1980 to Birds of Prey in 2010. Several of these are tied to major literary publications and organizations: the London Review of Books, Penguin, Granta, and PEN America all appear as publishers across the ten entries.
The mid-1990s saw Rushdie involved in two anthologies focused on Indian writing, Mirrorwork and The Vintage Book of Indian Writing 1947-1997, both published in 1997. Later contributions include Four Continents (2008) and Pen America 13 (2009). Since each anthology is a standalone collection, these can be read in any order.
