Book: A Thousand Splendid Suns
Both born in Afghanistan a generation apart and with very different ideas about love and family, Mariam and Laila are brought together by war, by loss and by fate. As they endure the ever escalating dangers around them -- in their home as well as in the streets of Kabul -- they form a bond that will ultimately alter the course of their lives and the lives of the next generation. With heart-wrenching power and suspense, Hosseini shows how a woman's love for her family can move her to shocking and heroic acts of self-sacrifice, and that in the end it is love, or even the memory of love, that is often the key to survival.
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
