A Thousand Splendid Suns

Beautifully written story about the hardships women face living in Afghanistan. Even better than The Kite Runner.

Hosseini edifies with his historically accurate backgrounds, and knowledge of Afghan culture. He moves the reader with poignant prose about the sacrifices parents make in the hopes of giving their children a better life than their own.

In this, just his second book, Hosseini has become a must read.
