But it made life a little simpler.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Havel Center began in 2012, starting as the Vaclav Havel Library Foundation. It is named after a Czech playwright and dissident who was the last president of Czechoslovakia in the wake of the Communist regime began to fall in the 1980s. <\/p>\n<p>CBS journalist Leslie Stahl hosted Tuesday\u2019s event.<\/p>\n<p>Almost a year after his stabbing, Rushdie gave an interview to the BBC in which he said he has \u201ccrazy dreams\u201d about the incident. At the time, he said he was working with a \u201cvery good therapist\u201d but was still indecisive on whether he would attend another public event that is not invitation-only and controllable.<\/p>\n<p>Rushdie has faced backlash and threats for his work for decades, especially from those who thought his depiction of Islam in his novel \u201cThe Satanic Verses,\u201d released in 1988, was blasphemous. Some of that backlash included the banning of the book in Bangladesh, Sri Lanka and Sudan.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The author spent a good portion of his speech praising Havel \u2014 who was a good friend of his. He said the former president was \u201ckind of a hero of mine\u201d who was \u201cable to be an artist at the same time as being an activist, according to the AP.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"ad-unit ad-unit--mr2_ab\"><\/aside>\n<p>\u201cHe was inspirational to me as for many, many writers, and to receive an award in his name is a great honor,\u201d Rushdie added.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Associated Press contributed.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Copyright 2023 Nexstar <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Media<\/a> Inc.
