Salman Rushdie is “on the road to recovery,” his agent Andrew Wylie said Sunday, quoted by US media, two days after the British writer was stabbed ten times by a young American of Lebanese origin during a conference in the north from the United States. .

He is no longer on life support and “the road to recovery has begun,” Andrew Wylie said in a statement sent to the Washington Post.

“The injuries are serious, but his condition is moving in the right direction,” added the agent of the author of “Satanic Verses”, stabbed this Friday at the Chautauqua Cultural Center (New York state) in the neck and abdomen.
