From the internationally best-selling writer of The Reluctant Fundamentalist, a love history that unfolds across the rapidly changing face of any volatile world. Within a country teetering on the brink of civil battle, two young people meet - sensual, fiercely self-employed Nadia and delicate, restrained Saeed. They go on a furtive love affair and are soon cloistered in a early intimacy by the unrest roiling their city. When it explodes, turning familiar roadways into a patchwork of checkpoints and bomb blasts, they start to listen to whispers about gates - gates that can whisk people far away, if perilously and then for a cost. As the assault escalates, Nadia and Saeed determine that they no more have a selection. Giving their homeland and their old lives behind, they find a door and step through.... Exit Western comes after these remarkable characters as they emerge into an alien and uncertain future, struggling to hold to each other, with their past, to the sense of who they are. Profoundly intimate and powerfully inventive, it tells an unforgettable history of love, commitment, and courage that is both completely of our own time and forever.
