Tayeb Salih or Al-Tayyib Salih (Arabic: الطيّب صالح) (1929 – 18 February 2009) was a Sudanese writer. Born in the Northern Province of Sudan, he studied at the University of Khartoum before leaving for the University of London in England. Coming from a background of small farmers and religious teachers, his original intention was to work in agriculture. Except, however, for a brief spell as a schoolmaster before coming to England, his working life was in broadcasting.
His works are generally political, dealing with themes such as colonization and gender. Salih was also considered one of the best short story writers working in Arabic today.[citation needed] Having studied both western and Arab literature, philosophy, and society, Salih intermingles aspects of both cultures in his works.
Salih achieved immediate acclaim when his novel Season of Migration to the North was first published in Arabic, in Beirut in the late 1960s. In 2001, this was declared "the most important Arabic novel of the 20th century" by the Syrian-based Arab Literary Academy in Damascus. His works have been translated from Arabic into more than 20 languages.
'"Season of Migration to the North" is an Arabian Nights in reverse, enclosing a pithy moral about international misconceptions and delusions. The brilliant student of an earlier generation returns to his Sudanese village; obsession with the mysterious West and a desire to bite the hand that has half-fed him, has led him to London and the beds of women with similar obsessions about the mysterious East. He kills them at the point of ecstasy and the Occident, in its turn, destroys him. Powerfully and poetically written and splendidly translated by Denys Johnson-Davies' - "Observer".
归根到底,穆斯塔法到死也是那个自私的人。他回到苏丹,看似已经看透一切,但其实还是被自己的性格所局限。他辉煌的青年时期在我看来却是完全的反面教材。自私的人并不是只爱自己,而是他连自己都不爱,因此也没有能力爱别人。他所谓的爱完全是受性的驱使,而性远远不能代表爱...

评分The fractions that I like most: 1 The moment I stand at the door of my grandfather, the discription of the slow-paced, peaceful life of the natives, how he had built the house little by little. Being back home for quite a long time, feel the similarity b...
评分我国也有相应的中文译作,已有的版本有《向北迁徙的季节》和《风流赛义德》,但这两本译作想要在京东当当这样的网站上是找不到的。 这也多少反映了我国时下的阿拉伯语译作现状,阿拉伯语译作多数情况下是不被重视的,如有机会对比原作中文译作和英文译作也能比较出来,我国的中...
