Season of Migration to the North is a 1966 classic post-colonial Sudanese novel by Tayeb Salih.The novel begins with the unnamed narrator returning to his Sudanese village after seven years abroad. In all the familiar faces, one stands out as a stranger - the older man Mustafa Sa'eed, who is aloof, unimpressed by the narrator's accomplishments, and — most strange of all — recites English poetry one night when drunk. The narrator, struck, insists that Sa'eed tell him the truth of who he really is, since he is clearly not just a 'man from Khartoum', and Sa'eed tells his life story in return.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })

You Are a Credit to Your Race: Mustafa Sa'eed is constantly subject to this, even being called 'the black Englishman'.

Where da White Women At?: A deconstruction and examination of this trope. Mustafa Sa'eed uses the exotification of his Arab-African heritage to seduce white women.

Marital Rape License: Wad Rayyes is an old man who wants to marry Bint Mamoud, Mustafa Sa'eed's widow. In the horrific aftermath of him doing this, it's clear that this occurred - he felt entitled to rape Bint Mamoud since she was now his wife.

Tragic Monster: Mustafa Sa'eed is a heavily allegorical version of this, being a heartless monster towards women and a murderer but also deeply a product of colonialism.
