EXIT WEST is a story about exile, asylum, and self discovery—brought to life through the epic love story of Nadia and Saeed. The two connect in an unnamed country on the brink of civil war, and as the bombs grow louder, so do the whispers of the secret doors that have helped others like them escape. With no other choice, they find a door and step through.
A finalist for the Man Booker prize, Exit West immediately inspired me to read every word Mohsin Hamid ever put on a page. It’s a nuanced and ambitious work of magical realism from a master of his craft. And while the universe Mohsin Hamid creates is a fictional one, the story itself is universal. It never names the home country of its protagonists or the religion they practice, but it places the reader immediately in the shoes of the millions of people seeking something as simple as a new home when they’re forced to leave their own.
