It is considered an example of postcolonial literature. It is an autobiography of 'Saleem', a character of novel which strongly represents author himself.
Midnights children very prominently stands as post modernist work and we can see that how the people of nation have to suffer without any concern what is going at international level. What and which kind of politics is taking place around it.
Apart from all the things, what is surprising to see is, they (who were born in the night of partition) are having magical power. So what are the causes of having some special power or capacity which others don't have. To convince the audience, one common reason was depicted and it was that that they were born in midnight. But others also take birth in midnight, why only handsome of people, especially who is born in that night are having such capacity.
