Season of Migration to the North
"The prose has a grave beauty. It's the story of a man who returns to his native Sudan after being educated in England, then encounters the first Sudanese to get an English education. The near-formal elegance in the writing contrasts with the sly anti-colonial world view of the book, and this makes it even more interesting." —Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, author of Half of a Yellow Sun
