'"Season of Migration to the North" is an Arabian Nights in reverse, enclosing a pithy moral about international misconceptions and delusions. The brilliant student of an earlier generation returns to his Sudanese village; obsession with the mysterious West and a desire to bite the hand that has half-fed him, has led him to London and the beds of women with similar obsessions about the mysterious East. He kills them at the point of ecstasy and the Occident, in its turn, destroys him. Powerfully and poetically written and splendidly translated by Denys Johnson-Davies' - "Observer".
Tayeb Salih or Al-Tayyib Salih (Arabic: الطيّب صالح) (1929 – 18 February 2009) was a Sudanese writer. Born in the Northern Province of Sudan, he studied at the University of Khartoum before leaving for the University of London in England. Coming from a background of small farmers and religious teachers, his original intention was to work in agriculture. Except, however, for a brief spell as a schoolmaster before coming to England, his working life was in broadcasting.
His works are generally political, dealing with themes such as colonization and gender. Salih was also considered one of the best short story writers working in Arabic today.[citation needed] Having studied both western and Arab literature, philosophy, and society, Salih intermingles aspects of both cultures in his works.
Salih achieved immediate acclaim when his novel Season of Migration to the North was first published in Arabic, in Beirut in the late 1960s. In 2001, this was declared "the most important Arabic novel of the 20th century" by the Syrian-based Arab Literary Academy in Damascus. His works have been translated from Arabic into more than 20 languages.
在一个曾是殖民国家的环境下,既有传统语境带来的困惑,也有无法脱非入欧的苦恼.接受了西方思想的聪明的人,却反而遭收到了毁灭。诚然其中大部分的问题如女性权利、官僚问题甚至是教育问题都和西方与当地传统的冲突有关,但真正把萨义德与“我”葬送入地狱的是游离于两个社会外的边缘感。

评分One of the pinnacles of Arabic literature, beautifully written and constructed.

3.5星 文章看到结尾,构思真的不错,整篇故事的架构很喜欢。但如果能够少些关于非洲男性主权、政治腐朽、教育问题等等的描述(也不一定非要明面说),或者如果这本书以这个为主,那就应当不是目前的轻扫几笔,不然既拖了整个故事的节奏,还没有起到效果。但有些结果也确实是这些...
评分The fractions that I like most: 1 The moment I stand at the door of my grandfather, the discription of the slow-paced, peaceful life of the natives, how he had built the house little by little. Being back home for quite a long time, feel the similarity b...
评分归根到底,穆斯塔法到死也是那个自私的人。他回到苏丹,看似已经看透一切,但其实还是被自己的性格所局限。他辉煌的青年时期在我看来却是完全的反面教材。自私的人并不是只爱自己,而是他连自己都不爱,因此也没有能力爱别人。他所谓的爱完全是受性的驱使,而性远远不能代表爱...
评分Season of Migration to the North explores the themes of dislocation, colonialism and free will. The theme of dislocation is repeatedly brought out and emphasized. The protagonist Mustafa is a man constantly on the move. He has been to Cairo, London and else...
