Abstract
Global migration and refugee crisis is one of the greatest problems faced by the contemporary world. There are an unexpected number of refugees and other displaced individuals who aim to pass through the borders of "privileged first world countries": At the same time, taking different measures to keep the refugees away by the European officials causes a severe xenophobia among them. Mohsin Hamid's fourth novel Exit West (2017) deals with these issues in detail and provides a transnational solution of magical doors which can lead people to anywhere in the world in a matter of seconds. The magical doors in Exit West suggest a borderless world in order to protect migration as a human right. Hamid presents a literary image of current immigrants' experience in a war-ridden world. This paper aims to explore the more recent development of using magical realism which is used by Hamid to depict the controversial migration crisis.
