Question

What author moved some 56 times in the six months after he was issued a death threat?

Answer 1

Salman Rushdie, the Indian-born author whose novel ''The Satanic Verses'' prompted Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini to call for his death, has spent the past six months living in British intelligence safe houses, cut off from friends and protected by armed guards .

Mr. Rushdie's American-born wife, the novelist Marianne Wiggins, has been quoted as saying the couple have moved 56 times since Ayatollah Khomeini denounced Mr. Rushdie's latest book on Feb. 14 as blasphemous to Islam and called on his Shiite followers to kill the author.
