AFTER MORE THAN TWO YEARS ON THE BESTSELLER LISTS, KHALED HOSSEINI RETURNS WITH A BEAUTIFUL, RIVETING, AND HAUNTING NOVEL OF ENORMOUS CONTEMPORARY RELEVANCE.

A Thousand Splendid Suns is a breathtaking story set against the volatile events of Afghanistan's last thirty years -- from the Soviet invasion to the reign of the Taliban to post-Taliban rebuilding -- that puts the violence, fear, hope and faith of this country in intimate, human terms. It is a tale of two generations of characters brought jarringly together by the tragic sweep of war, where personal lives -- the struggle to survive, raise a family, find happiness -- are inextricable from the history playing out around them.

Propelled by the same storytelling instinct that made The Kite Runner a beloved classic, A Thousand Splendid Suns is at once a remarkable chronicle of three decades of Afghan history and a deeply moving account of family and friendship. It is a striking, heart-wrenching novel of an unforgiving time, an unlikely friendship, and an indestructible love -- a stunning accomplishment.©2007 TKR Publications, LLC.

I was surprised by the descriptive power of the language... The book is wonderfully written and nicely read. I am sorry, I did not buy the full version.

A wondeful, descriptive book about the lives of 2 women in Afghanistan. MariamŽs life, so simple , her marriage to the, at first , good husband who becomes more and more bitter that she cannot provide him with his much wanted son.Leila a beautiful young girl whose life is struct by tragedy in the war and who, she thinks has lost everything.Rashid marries her, much to MariamŽs horror.It is so beautiful to see the relationship between Mariam and Leila develop,to a deep love , which almost makes up for RashidŽs cruelty.The reading of this wonderful book is so well done. The accents, the feeling and emotions that come through make it really special.Even after reading both booksby Khaled Hosseini, I was enthralled with the audio book. A very worthwhile buy.
