Dear Salman Rushdie, I am from Urbane Künste Ruhr, an institution for contemporary art in the Ruhr region in Germany. We are interested in publishing your short story "Ù or, The Interpretation of Dreams" in our magazin (Feb. 2023). To which mailadress/contact should we send our request? Best, Tanja
You, the Prince, Mr Rushdie, telling us, the Seven Princesses, Night after Night the story that make us live and dream we are living all Us Together. Thank you for this one.
I call it trans-theology; the one, the none, and the many god but that's too stuffy. Gonzo religion is too snarky. Lacking in reverence. Can't we just call it being a grownup on planet Earth? 🌼
I don’t think there can be such a word. What is at stake here already exceeds what any noun could contain; in fact, it might be better entrusted to a set of verbs. I don’t believe dreams can be interpreted, but they can enter into dialogue with vision, argue with it, and in doing so be pushed toward a new position.
I still think there are some unsolvable contradictions to let these two sides coexist in peace, and it is pointed in your story, "if we were told that the mashngi wanted us to kill our neighbor, we did that too."..."We need somebody to come up with a word that persuades us that the idea of gods and the idea of no gods are both norms. That if some people think of life as mamu, and others want it to be filled with mashngi, well, that’s pretty normal."
Great story. I saw it in 2022 at the Fondatione Prada being a part of "The Human Brain" exhibition. It then had such a strong impact on me I remember it 3 years later, in parts, went into the internet and printed it out in order to send it to a few friends.
In Hawaii, the word is “aloha”.

Salman! How's it going! It's like meeting Willie Mays, I can't believe I am writing to you.!
I hope all is well.
Salman, I am sorry for pain you have gone through.
Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary of Fatima came to Fatima, Portugal in 1917.
Confirmed by socialists, who are enemy of Catholic Church, and by Miracle of the Sun, 70k ... and Her prophecies.
Famous.
Anyway, we are suffering because Catholics ignored this message.
But Triumph of Immaculate Heart is to come
My point to you, many Catholics believe Her coming to Fatima was no coincidence.... Fatima being very special person in Islam...
She loves Muslims.
While Catholics ignored Her, I hear of Muslims going into Catholic churches to light a candle to Her.
Remember this: She is never outdone in generosity, and She deeply loves Muslims. God bless, Salman
Well John, you definitely spend too much time asleep and dreaming.
That is the most preposterous idea of the day.
Muslims require total submission to allah, and that lady is nothing but an infidel to Islam. She’s Jewish as well.
The 7th century ideology was invented by a man who spent too much time dreaming in the desert.
Back to sleep.
Loved this story!

G_d gave you freedom to believe what you want.
Doesn’t mean that anyone has to follow your example, nor does it mean you are right.
How beautiful. If only we had such a word...
Happy Birthday!
What the hell is this for????
Wonderful
