BlairI’m finally getting around to one of the classics of post-colonial literature for this week’s <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ThursdayBooksandBeer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ThursdayBooksandBeer</a>: Tayeb Salih’s Season of Migration to the North, translated from the Arabic by Denys Johnson-Davies. I’ve made my own migration to Melbourne’s inner north to obtain a ‘Pint of Dread’ porter from new kid on the block, Subculture Brewing, to accompany the book. “It was, gentlemen, after a long absence—seven years to be exact, during which time I was studying in Europe—that I returned to my people. I learnt much and much passed me by—but that’s another story.” <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/reading?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#reading</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/literature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#literature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/postcolonial?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#postcolonial</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/tayebsalih?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#tayebsalih</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/craftbeer?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#craftbeer</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/subculture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#subculture</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/porter?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#porter</a>
