A review by hollyway
Season of Migration to the North by Tayeb Salih

challenging dark mysterious reflective tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Says so much in so few pages. Propulsive, hypnotic prose. As messy and elusive as a dream, and equally imbued with heady symbolism. A darkly gorgeous and magnetic novel. Really loved this.
