Product description

Author: Tayeb Salih Publication Date: 2026 Book Classification: Short Story and Novel Publisher: Kalimat Group - UAE Number of Pages: 161 Cover Format: Paperback Synopsis: One of the greatest Arabic novels of the twentieth century. I remembered what the priest told me, on my way to Cairo: “We all travel alone in the end, my son.” From a bend in the Nile in the forgotten village of Wad Hamid, the story unfolds into the life of Mustafa Saeed, the enigmatic man who takes us from gatherings of friends in front of Saeed’s shop, to the closed room, to Cairo, then London, and finally to the vast expanse of the world. On the pages of the novel, the experience of displacement and return, loneliness and alienation, and the constant search for self and other are embodied in fierce battles between the intellectual self and tyranny, and between the national self and colonialism. Season of Migration to the North rewrites the relationship between colonizer and colonized, dismantling the stereotypical image perpetuated by colonial literature, in a breathtaking journey from South to North that evokes a whirlwind of artistic and intellectual magic, as described by Raja’a Al-Naqqash. Since its first publication in 1966, the novel has remained a landmark in Arabic literature, and has been repeatedly chosen as one of the best one hundred Arabic novels of the twentieth century, as one of the pillars of modern Arabic narrative.
