Diasporic works are those produced by natives of a country or region who no longer live in that country or region, “people settled far from their ancestral homelands” per Merriam Webster. Salman Rushdie no longer lives in the country in which he was born. Salman Rushdie wrote this novel after he left India. Therefore it meets the definition of a diasporic work.
