Zeit der Nordwanderung (in the original: Mausim Al-Hijra ila Achamaal) is the second post-colonial novel by the Sudanese writer and journalist At-Tayyib Salih, published in 1998. The main theme of the work is the clash between European and Arab culture, which is reflected in the main character Mustafa Said, who returns to a small village on the Nile after many years in Europe. In 2001, the Arab Academy of Literature in Damascus declared this work to be the most important Arab novel of the 20th century.
