Lovely

A Thousand Splendid Suns A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini

My review


rating: 4 of 5 stars
I listened to the audio book on a road trip over the 4th of July weekend. It's a heartbreaker, but I was glad to have "read" it. It focuses a lot on the issues of women in the last four decades in Afghanistan, so .... harrowing. Especially the years under the Taliban. Not that this is nonfiction, but I assume it's not too far from the truth. I'd recommend it.

I have also read "with my ears" the kite runner also a very good book more about the male culture and about new and old of the culture struggling to come to terms. actually I preferred the kite runner.
