Tayyeb Saleh, the Sudanese novelist and writer passed away yesterday in London. He was nearly 80 years old. He left behind a rich literary collection that has a number of novels, the most famous of which is Season of Migration to the North, which gained fame for being one of the first novels to deal with the “clash of civilizations” (who wrote this expression?!) and how an individual from the third world looked at the first world in a sensitive artistic manner. This novel is basic reading for anyone studying post colonial Arab and African societies; one could call it the literary version of the Wretched of the Earth. It is also unique for being a novel which offers as much in whatever language it is translated into as it does in the Arabic. There are few novels that are so full of riches in 180 pages.
