ABDULRAZAK GURNAH

By the Sea

London, UK: Bloomsbury, 2001. First. Hardback copy. 245pp. ISBN: 0747552800. Octavo. Saleh Omar, a former furniture shop owner, arrives in England seeking asylum from his native Zanzibar, using silence and claiming ignorance as his only protection. Meanwhile, Latif Mahmud, a poet and professor, lives quietly alone in his London flat, bitter about the country and family he has left behind. When the two men meet in a small English seaside town, there begins the unraveling of a feud from long ago. This is a profoundly moving and eloquent look into the minds of two immigrants, two "others," who have left one home by the sea and gone halfway around the world to take up residence in another. Abdulrazak Gurnah, has created a stunning and elegiac look at a world where imperialism opens boundaries - only to close off borders. ~~~ Author(s): Abdulrazak Gurnah; Binding material: Cloth; Binding state: Original binding; Binding style: Full; Class: Hardback copy; Condition: Mint; Edition: First; Jacket condition: Mint; Language: English; Pages: 245; Publication year: 2001; Signed: By author; Size: Octavo..
