Love and migration through magical realism.
If you're drawn to stories that blend the real with the fantastic, "Exit West" by Mohsin Hamid could be a mesmerizing read for you. It's a poignant tale that uses magical doors as a metaphor for the refugee experience, connecting the gritty reality of migration with a touch of fantasy. Hamid's lyrical prose and the novel's universal themes of love, loss, and the search for belonging make it an emotionally compelling journey.
