A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS tells the wonderful, intensely moving story of how two modern Afghan women overcome the great challenges that have faced women in Afghanistan and rise above their victimization. Khaled Hosseini has succeeded in capturing many important historical and contemporary themes in a way that will make your heart ache again and again. The story of modern Afghanistan differs little from that nation's long history: war and war and war again as invading armies marched in to suffer defeat at the hands of tribesmen and geography. It is that region's misfortune to lie between glittering prizes desired by the world's tyrants and then, in wars' wake, to fall prey to religious zealotry. This compelling novel comprises the lives of two modern Afghani women ... MoreA THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS tells the wonderful, intensely moving story of how two modern Afghan women overcome the great challenges that have faced women in Afghanistan and rise above their victimization.

This compelling novel comprises the lives of two modern Afghani women shaped by the personal violence of sharia and the impersonal desecration of war. Khaled Hosseini has also delivered a tale of heroic loyalty and love that extend across miles and mountains and generations.

This story is not for the faint hearted. It is for a reader who is genuinely interested in the culture of Afghanistan, its history, politics, and the impact of invasions over the years c. 1970's-2000 and the subsequent migrations of a people. I couldn't believe what I was reading. I couldn't put it down. The author's words are a powerful portrayal.

Wonderful author this is the 3rd book of his I have read and would recommend. Not an author for lightweight reading
It's horrifying to read about the treatment of people, especially women & girls, within the last 30/40 years. An interesting eye opener. Very engaging.
The cover was mostly damaged not just slightly the book had clear signs of use the rest were great!
