Product Information

FINALIST FOR THE BOOKER PRIZE & WINNER OF THE L.A. TIMES BOOK PRIZE FOR FICTION and THE ASPEN WORDS LITERARY PRIZE "It was as if Hamid knew what was going to happen to America and the world, and gave us a road map to our future... At once terrifying and ... oddly hopeful." --Ayelet Waldman, The New York Times Book Review "Moving, audacious, and indelibly human." -- Entertainment Weekly , "A" rating The New York Times bestselling novel: an astonishingly visionary love story that imagines the forces that drive ordinary people from their homes into the uncertain embrace of new lands, from the author of The Reluctant Fundamentalist and the forthcoming The Last White Man . In a country teetering on the brink of civil war, two young people meet--sensual, fiercely independent Nadia and gentle, restrained Saeed. They embark on a furtive love affair, and are soon cloistered in a premature intimacy by the unrest roiling their city. When it explodes, turning familiar streets into a patchwork of checkpoints and bomb blasts, they begin to hear whispers about doors--doors that can whisk people far away, if perilously and for a price. As the violence escalates, Nadia and Saeed decide that they no longer have a choice. Leaving their homeland and their old lives behind, they find a door and step through. . . . Exit West follows these remarkable characters as they emerge into an alien and uncertain future, struggling to hold on to each other, to their past, to the very sense of who they are. Profoundly intimate and powerfully inventive, it tells an unforgettable story of love, loyalty, and courage that is both completely of our time and for all time.

Reviews
"It was as if Hamid knew what was going to happen to America and the world, and gave us a road map to our future... This book blew the top off my head. It''s at once terrifying and, in the end, oddly hopeful."  - Ayelet Waldman, New York Times Book Review "No novel is really about the cliche called ''the human condition,'' but good novels expose and interpret the particular condition of the humans in their charge, and this is what Hamid has achieved here. If in its physical and perilous immediacy Nadia and Saeed''s condition is alien to the mass of us, Exit West makes a final, certain declaration of affinity: ''We are all migrants through time.''"   --Washington Post "If there is one book everyone should read ASAP, it is Mohsin Hamid''s  Exit Wes t...Short, unsentimental, deeply intimate, and so very powerful."  -- Goop "Powerfully evokes the violence and anxiety of lives lived ''under the drone-crossed sky.''" -- Time Magazine "Hamid''s timely and spare new novel confronts the inevitability of mass global immigration, the unbroken cycle of violence and the indomitable human will to connect and love."  -- Huffington Post "Eerily prescient." - Joyce Carol Oates, The New Yorker.com "[A] thought experiment that pivots on the crucial figure of this century: the migrant... Hamid''s cautious, even fastidious prose makes the sudden flashes of social breakdown all the more affecting...Evading the lure of both the utopian and the dystopian, Exit West makes some rough early sketches of the world that must come if we (or is it ''you''?) are to avoid walling out the rest of the human race in the 21st century." - Financial Times "You identify with the struggles and sorrows of the migrants; you understand, at least a little bit, the conditions that refugees are trying to escape. Most powerfully, we are encouraged to imagine the characters'' painful choices--why they might subject their families to incredibly risky boat voyages, and why they might leave other family members behind to die...If refugees are murderers, their crimes are generally based on impossible decisions about family, love, and memory--crimes that are very, very different from what Trump would want you to believe."  -BookForum   "Exit West operates on another plane... With its surprisingly poignant use of magic realism, the novel is beautiful and poetic even at its most devastating."  - Book Riot "Remarkably current and timeless ... Hamid''s world, where surveillance drones whirr in the sky, secret doors replace borders, and identity is as fragile as thin glass, had me at the edge of my couch. A haunting and heart-piercing novel that reminds us to be courageous and to handle our shared humanity with great care. This is required reading. " - Uli Beutter Cohen, Eye Level "Raw, poetic, and frighteningly prescient."  -- BBC.com "Exit West offers a close-to-the-bone dystopia,...with all the realism of Islamist terror and alt-Right outrage thrown in among the spookier stuff." - Evening Standard "Spellbinding."  -- Booklist (starred)  "Timely and resonant."  -- Publisher''s Weekly, Top 10 Most-Anticipated Literary Fiction of 2017 "One of the most bittersweet love stories in modern memory...a book to savor."  -- Kirkus Reviews "[H]eartbreakingly relevant."  -- Library Journal Praise for How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia: "Hamid reaffirms his place as one of his generation''s most inventive and gifted writers." --M ichiko Kakutani, The New York Times "This tale of an unscrupulous striver may bring to mind a globalized version of The Great Gatsby . Given the unabashed gimmickry of Hamid''s how-to design, it''s a pleasant surprise to find that his book is nearly that good." -- Alan Cheuse, NPR, Praise for How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia: "Hamid reaffirms his place as one of his generation's most inventive and gifted writers." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "This tale of an unscrupulous striver may bring to mind a globalized version of The Great Gatsby . Given the unabashed gimmickry of Hamid's how-to design, it's a pleasant surprise to find that his book is nearly that good." --Alan Cheuse, NPR Praise for The Reluctant Fundamentalist: "Extreme times call for extreme reactions, extreme writing. Hamid has done something extraordinary with this novel." --The Washington Post "Elegant and chilling." --The New York Times Book Review Praise for Discontent and Its Civilizations : "Hamid is an amazingly gifted writer, and Discontent is a near-perfect essay collection, filled with insight, compassion, and intellect." --NPR "Often compelling . . . Its strongest entries reflect the same subtleties of thought [as his novels], laid down in his lapidary, crystalline prose." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times, Praise for Exit West :  "[H]eartbreakingly relevant."  --Library Journal Praise for How to Get Filthy Rich in Rising Asia: "Hamid reaffirms his place as one of his generation's most inventive and gifted writers." --Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times "This tale of an unscrupulous striver may bring to mind a globalized version of The Great Gatsby .

This book blew the top off my head. It's at once terrifying and, in the end, oddly hopeful."  - Ayelet Waldman, New York Times Book Review "Eerily prescient." - Joyce Carol Oates, The New Yorker.com "The book's 230 pages pack in romance, survival and an incredible portrait of the human experience." - amNewYork "Hamid's timely and spare new novel confronts the inevitability of mass global immigration, the unbroken cycle of violence and the indomitable human will to connect and love."  -- Huffington Post "You identify with the struggles and sorrows of the migrants; you understand, at least a little bit, the conditions that refugees are trying to escape.
