Book: A Thousand Splendid Suns
Mariam is only fifteen when she is sent to Kabul to marry Rasheed. Nearly two decades later, a friendship grows between Mariam and a local teenager, Laila, as strong as the ties between mother and daughter. When the Taliban take over, life becomes a desperate struggle against starvation, brutality and fear. Yet love can move a person to act in unexpected ways, and lead them to overcome the most daunting obstacles with a startling heroism.
Manifestation of harsh reality"Thousand Splendid suns" is more of a manifeatation of harsh reality and agony that prevailed in Kabul during its worst time. It vividly portrays the plight of people, especially woman when the time was Talibanised. Hosseini is fairly successful in showing the audacity and sacrifice of a woman for her love.....
Breath catching reality..Breath catching reality expressed in such simple words.. Impressed by Hossein's writing.. Its so well written that u feel as if u r witnessing the proceedings right there in Afghanistan at Laila and Mariam's house!!
simply superb....no words can suffice fr the book it is....
MUST READ....buy ... borrow.....earn or steal :P

My Friend Sancho by Amit Varma
Blogger Amit Varma brings a particular libertarian point of view to his columns and blog items, but also a risqué sense of humor that keeps readers hooked.
He won the 2007 Bastiat Prize for his columns in Indian business paper Mint, and for a select group of Indians, he represents a libertarian, anti-tax and anti-government sensibility that is still quite rare in the country.
