- Award-winning author Salman Rushdie describes his new memoir as a "reckoning." In 2022, he was stabbed in the neck and abdomen more than a dozen times in western New York and lost sight in his right eye. In Rushdie's new memoir, "Knife: Meditations After an Attempted Murder," he writes about the attack. He and his wife, poet and author Rachel Eliza Griffiths, join "CBS Mornings" for their first joint live interview.

I was a personal assistant to Rachel Eliza for about a year or so. And she is just as precious and as sweet in real life as she is in this video. It felt good to hear her laugh and feel her grounded presence while watching this :’)
That is so lovely to know. Intelligent men are very attractive, and he must also be very kind if she is. Add the laughter, irresistible.
What a beautiful comment. Thank you for sharing.
I hope he treats her well. He's been married so many times.
her counsel comes across as exceptional
@@erlineandrews For you to presume that ALL his previous marriages breakups were because of him 'mistreating' his ex-wives are PRESUMPTIOUS unless you know extremely personal details of his relationships with them. Perhaps some of his ex-wives are at fault for their breakups with him. Women are NOT always angels that you delusionally believe!
Beautiful Wife w/ a beautiful spirit & genuine LOVE for her Husband..Thank God, He survived. Bless the Both You... pls be careful 🙏
@@rafaelw8115 pls do not be smug, sly & oily... it's not becoming. cuz nothing is more ugly than an ugly attitude. 🤨
@@rafaelw8115 You said she was too beautiful for
him... insinuating what??? beauty is only skin deep.
been there done that when you are judged on your looks not your inner being, especially the one chosen continuously question, why Me... 🤦 why not, YOU... it's very trying...
And woman, wife has the courage of great women.
Mrs . Fannie Lou Hamer
Mrs. Ida B. Wells
Mrs. Dorothy Day
Anyway no harm, no foul
My apologies. be blessed 🙏
@@rafaelw8115 but you didn't with a negative and then you try to clean it up with a position. how do you know she's not the lucky one just because she's beautiful.
@@rafaelw8115 ty.... I appreciate it.
the civility in our Convo. this continues to what I know is true, there is good in more of US than, not.
The man with the knife was an irrelevant and shameless coward. Who attacks a seventy-five-year-old man physically? His parents should be ashamed of him!
Is mother is. She has banned him from her life!
Shameless is Rushdie who writes negative stuffs to make money
Never heard about freedom of speech?
There is a limit to freedom. When your freedom extend into other's belief, trouble starts.
@@Gashgo No becusse anyone can declare himself offended by anything and so everybody can't speack
There are very few men who are as well spoken, as cleverly witty, yet realistic, as charming as this Man... He is truely a master of his language...
This Dude is a straight up Boss with the Ladies. Married 5 times to women who are very easy on the eyes. Padma was smokin’ and Rachel is mad fine too!
Yea, he's smashed some 10+'s in his day👍.Mad respect!
I came here to say the same thing. I don't get his appeal.
@@JoyHarrison Clearly fame and renown as a Writer are his Cupid’s Arrow. 💘
Maybe he’s a champ in the sack cause he’s obviously not cashing in on his looks!
@JoyHarrison probably attracted to his intelligence and philosophies. Otherwise, I don't get why someone would want to be wife #5.
Intelligent and brave.
Wow. I’m happy he is whole and healing. Glad his wife is so supportive.
Why even ask that question? They are not odd. Just 2 human beings loving each other. 🤦🏻♀️
Gail King is such an amateur interviewer-it's painful to watch her ask and say the most ridiculous things.
She interrupts a lot while they are answering.
She's always saying something inappropriate.She also talks over people. It's annoying.
Can we be that understanding of older women with younger men as well?
@@ellensiniscalchi1482
Totally agree. She gets on my nerves. Never been a fan 🙄
So sorry that this happened to you for simply writing your imaginings. Glad you’ve found happiness as fellow artists.
His wife is so beautiful
For sure.
Why is she with that old washed up thing. BE HONEST!
@@AbeJacobyMoney?
@@agneshegyi5785 OBVIOUSLY! She may look beautiful, but a lot of those 304s ("garden tools")are.
And Obviously, bright and free to do as she pleases. (haters - @agneshegyi5785, @AbeJacoby, etal...) "If you don't have anything nice to say don't say anything at all."
He is a survivor and it's beautiful to see Rachel, who is super talented and creative, in a healthy loving relationship. Love has not age.
age ain't nothing but a #
She loves that bank account 😆
@@TheSakufighterwrong. She is accomplished and successful in her own right
shamefull survivour
Means nothing@@d18zephyr
Wow, what a way to recover. His wife appears to be a nice woman. Much blessings to people who survive and thrive❤
May GOD please bless and protect this man, his wife and family and all who are victims of hate🙏🏾
Salman Rushdie is a creative genius !!!!..
Well genius is someone that is possessed by djinns.
Let him write some books on your religion sure you be please with his work. Please praise this genius more on his creativity
Lucifer is happy with him
What an amazing writer and man. I wish him and his beautiful partner many blessings.
Hearing the legendary novelist Salman Rushdie mention Wolverine made me smile.
I love Rushdie. Don't know a better, wittier, more creative and intelligent writer than him. God bless this beautiful couple. How delightful to see them after so much trauma.
As critical as I am of all religious faiths, I'll give one credit to Christianity and Judaism: You can criticize them and not have a whole assassination crew sent after you.
(Well, nowadays.)
Nope. Anything said in criticism of people practicing Judaism is now called antisemitism. And the government is doling out the punishments on their behalf.
@@KaeMaiden Nobody ever died being condemned for antisemitism.
Though, while we're on the topic, you seem to have a personal problem with Jews. Giving me major QAnon vibes.
Beautiful couple! Praying for his complete healing and for their safety!
I was so happy when I met Sir Salman almost a decade ago! He’s the most incredible, erudite, charismatic, and humble person. Love ❤ him!
I watched the 60 Minutes interview with Anderson Cooper. This is just as great of an interview because his wife Rachel was part of it. Lovely lady.
I love this man and his philosophy in life. I live in Syria where I must say Islam played a major part in the destruction of once beautiful place. I feel I need to learn from Salman's example and stand up to backwards ideology and the idiots who benefit from the business of hate!
Islam is a religion, Islam can't be destructive. Religious extremists on the other hand, can.
Are you 1400-years-old because that's how long Syria has been with Islam. So you're just comparing Syria and Islam today with Syria and Islam a few years or decades ago. You have no other frame of reference, which means your hatred of Islam has little to do with its impact on Syria. You might want to look up "Operation Timber Sycamore" to educate yourself on how Syria ended up in ruins.
@@realtalk6195Syria was Christian. Syria is peaceful and great before Muslim invasion.
Where Islam goes destruction follows. Turkey and Western Europe in general is been destroyed by it
I agree no one wants to admit the elephant in the room which is Islam has been one of those things that have and will continue to cause alot of strife in this world especially because it's ideology is on the basic principle of forcing and subjugating people into living a certain way whether they like it or not without no freewill. It's absolutely disgusting when u think about it deeply.
I love Salman's writing. They make such a lovely couple. God bless them.
Rachel Eliza is such an amazing Writer and so is Salman. I had no idea they were together for that long. I wish them many blessings in their marriage. Salman is really lucky to be alive.
Brave to keep on standing up for free speech considering what he's been through. A hero of our times.
It’s been disappointing he hasn’t received a Nobel prize. He is genius. And all his wives are true beauties.
What a beautiful couple!!!!!
Stop the hogwash!
This man deserves a Nobel prize each and every year.
Glad to see him doing well and having a beautiful relationship with his wife.
Eliza’s openness and honesty was quite moving
Yes, I could hear the emotion in her voice when she recounted the ordeal.
Great to see he has recovered,God is Good
Good to see Rushdie is doing okay. He has such a positive attitude, and Mrs. Rushdie seems to be a nice person.
I love this couple, nice to see good people being happy! So glad he survived that horrible attack. Looking forward to the book………
What a magnificent interview! Profound on many levels. The woman, where is she, her other manifestations around the world? Is she inspired to bring this out because he's an older man, I ask myself? Her father seems incredibly wise and grounded not simply socially coerced and making decisions based on what society might think. Salman has went through so much with courage and clearly a life of purpose to be pondered. The dying question experience and No answer! Wow....Gail the interviewer, great questions and listening afterwards 🎉 So much unexpected in this short interview.
He needs personal security for the rest of his life because his adversaries are clearly very patient.
Well he always had it when he was in the UK but this wasn't in the uk
@@fence22 Yes. And his security was ARMED (I believe the Metropolitan police provided this service) provided by the British government!
Legend! Genius! Survivor! Hero! Humanitarian.
He actually looks very very distinguished. He definitely doesn’t look 75 or maybe he’s even older at this interview
Glad he finally found the right wife for him he looks happier here then with the other wives
I hate that Salman Rushie was attacked and hurt after all these years. What more do we need to know ( but there is much more ) about the toxic culture and relgion of the Iranian Mullahs than this vindictive, evil, energy they put out into the world. I have to admit to be overjoyed that Rushdie is processing what happened to him and turning it to his favor and standing up against the regime and powers that threatened him. Salman Rushdie is a 21st century world hero who stands up like very few others against a threat to global civlization and peace.
I wish them many happy years together
Gail, you are so good. Brava! I love this interview. Can't wait to get this book.
i wish everyone nothing but the best.
"He had a knife; I had a microphone."
No match there😅
I’m glad you’re alive Mr Salman.
How does he always date these young beautiful women?
I don't understand how he appeals to these beautiful ladies.
He's got "it" when it comes to talent, communication & intelligence. There are women that look beyond the superficial.
Mental stimulation is truly powerful.
@@meowcatcat3472 but why date a 30 years older man? You can just be friends with him and date a 40 years old man
It's called money
Just the most horrible attack. Thank you for sharing.
Such a healing couple. 💚🙏🏼 continued blessings
Thanks for showing us this fantastic couple ... Lovely Great People ... God Bless them ... ‼️🦩🙋🌷
Lovely couple....
Please stay safe and wishing both all the best of times together.
Thanks God he is well and alive! How awful, what happened to him.
Salman has always been a free spirited man of all ages and cultures. I’ve listened to this man speak in interviews since the 80s and hes straight up honest with a brilliant enquiring mind. Hes so well spoken with a fantastic capacity for listening and response. I don’t see any oddness with him being with a woman half his age and from a different culture. It’s all about a connection and compatibility in personality, temperament, interests, energies and a quality of spirit with the same ‘getup and go’. Sometimes it all comes together in one fell swoop for the lucky couple.
Beautiful couple! Wishing them the best. 💕
Glad is alright he’s writings to me are precious ❤️ him and happy his still here with us .
Beautiful couple ❤
Young wife that could have been his granddaughter & wealthy old man. I am happy for both of them.
Rock stars date and marry young models every day, so what's new?
She loves his intellect
Beautiful couple 💕..I'm happy to see him doing well and continuing his writing.
Stop lying? TELL us what is so beautiful about them as a couple???
Gayle, I like you, but find it difficult to understand the plunging necklines on morning TV.
She has too much money, status and fame to care what people like you think about what she wears. So while you're being concerned about her clothes, she doesn't even know you exist. 🤣
You're correct. Being in the public eye does not conflate w/professionalism and decorum.
When I see Salman and his beautiful 😍 wife, I think of the song "Night Nurse". I'll leave it at that.😂😅❤😉
I like this man...thinker, reader and writer. Plus he is funny, got guts, and he has a gorgeous wife!! Her touch to him is lovely and says a lot!
Lol!! She saw him across the room she said it was love 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 get that bag sis
I have followed Salman for a long time. I respect and love him for the wonderful human being he is. Loved his chats with Hitch. I was really sad to hear of the knife attack and sad he lost an eye. I am glad he seems happy and has such a lovely wife. Take care Salman.
One thing I’m definitely agree with his wife.he is hilarious 😂 and now he really look more funny 😂
Nice to be open to love 💕
This is the first interview I enjoy with Gayle King not saying she's a bad interviewer but at times she just slip up
I’m so happy for them glad her husband survived she’s so pretty and smart I wish I was friends with them love it
Love love how he wears his eye patch as a badge of honor
3:26 surprised the glass door encounter wasn't mentioned as parallel to #CurbYourEnthusiasm and the arc with Larry & Lisa Ling.
Fight the world with imagination, only Salman could come up with something like this.
No one feels SAFE in NY
Give this guy props , he a fighter !
Well said madame supportive wife : Mrs. Rushdie ✅.. I will read this compelling memoir
It happened in Australia too, a priest was preaching and another Muhammadian man came and stabbed him several times. In France, a priest was beheaded by another man from is lam ic religion
That doesn’t mean it is the same as the reasons behind those attacks. It is clear you know little about the issues. They are not called “Muhammadian”. They are called Muslims. Also, I am sure you don’t even know which book he wrote or what it was about which relate to the the attacks, which have occurred. Also, stop trying to spread misinformation and assumptions about other attacks. It really shows your bias. The incident in Australian was of an Assyrian priest, not a Christian one. The attacker was also not a man but a 16 year old boy. The police called it a terror attack, but we don’t know what caused it or if perhaps the priest had done something to the teenager….who knows. At this time, there doesn’t seem to be any information related it to being religiously motivated. I actually think the attacker is also of Assyrian descent, although he is Australian, too. You made it sound like a Muslim did it since are trying to connect it with this story. They aren’t even related stories! The issue in France was related to France’s political involvement in conflicts in Syria and Iraq. Yes, the priest was killed, but they did not behead him! They cut his throat, but there was no beheading! Stop spreading misinformation and conflating issues.
"Muhammaian"? Dude what century are you living in?
Lol Jihadi got triggered 😂😂@@lisbondiaries9212
Wow, 🙏
great inspiring human being!
Eliza is beautiful
Why not just have both lenses shaded? 🤷♂️
They looked very Happy ❤🌹💯😻😍🤩
I'm not to keen on the way Gale interviews or maybe it's just this interview. She wasn't at all warm, I think is the adjective I'm looking for. Slightly blunt but maybe that's her way.
It’s wonderful how her attraction to him has nothing to do with all of his money
It's wonderful how his attraction to her has nothing to do with her race or age. Either way, who cares? It's HIS money and his life.
salman certainly has a good eye in picking up women. This one is a hottie as well
I believe the dream he had before the attack and his miraculous survival were a clear sign that God is calling this man. Jesus loves you.
How is that the God of Muslims hate him and God of Christians love him?
He isn’t Christian. He was born in India, so believe he was raised Hindu.
Praise God for Life, and living 🙏🏿
Is Gayle King's dress a bit low?
Yes!
Where was security?
I'm wondering the same thing too.
People can pretend they don't see the obvious all they want. Gale has to call out the one time they touch, very briefly. But if you live in the real world whatever they have going on between themselves it isn't what you'd call "Deep Real Love" probably an agreed arrangement
How did they meet?
Did you even watch the video? It was mentioned at the beginning of the interview. smh
Islam. A peaceful religion. 🙄
Ok Salman, good taste.
Gail King is interesitng.
🤭🤭 I don’t know how to take this 😂
Love a Wonderful Thing ❤ not hard to do Let's do it Humanity we've Got to Heal
He looks like a changed man but his spirit is the same.
I don’t know if I liked Gail’s Delivery 🤔 can’t pinpoint
Okay.
❤
Take notes Sugar Babies 😂 💰
How rich is he? I know he's not on JK Rowlings' level of success as a writer.
She is successful and rich. He’s successful and well off. You on thé other hand sound creepy
@@JoyHarrisonI briefly looked it up. On one site it says his net worth is $15 million and another says $20 million
Lovely interview despite the horrific subject matter. And I love Gayle King's haircut. :)
Her wig..it's a wig
Love conquers all
💕♥️❤️🤩😍😻💯
Gerat interview. And Gayle is such a good interviewer
Not as good as Robin Roberts.
Brave.
Love you Salman ❤❤
Salman Rashdi is a great writer and genius .❤
Thought he was a joke from a episode of Seinfeld
Nope he’s a highly intelligent man also flawed as this is his 5th wife
What episode?
@@Loveabounds. Who cares if it's his 10th? As long as he's happy, that's all that matters.
He says I am the maker of a book but he do not accept the fact that we also have the maker of the universe. Double standard people like him doesnt make sense to me.
