Exit West by Mohsin Hamid

3.0

Changing my review after we went over it in my English class.

I still maintain that this book has good writing and characterization, but it does a very unsatisfactory job of portraying the migrant experience. It's like Hamid is trying to defy western stereotypes and the mass-media image of who migrants are, but then he turns around and does the exact same thing but just in different ways.

Also, this is a really vague critique, so I'll probably structure this better a little later.
