Exit West, Mohsin Hamid (238 pp.)
“The novel feels immediately canonical so firm and unerring is Hamid’s understanding of our time and its most pressing questions…” - The New Yorker
“…Hamid’s is a breathtaking, complex sweeping view of the current global predicament not just a crisis of refugees …” - NY Review of Books
