A Thousand Splendid Suns : Khaled Hosseini
Hosseini’s The Kite Runner is masterful, but his sophomore novel affected me even more. This is the story of two women, Mariam and Layla, brought together in Kabul, Afghanistan, in lives filled with dangers: at home, from the war outside, and from the daily oppressions of life as a woman. Eye-opening, heartbreaking, and uncomfortable, this book will also give you hope in the power and importance of women’s endurance, friendship, and education.
