Khaled Hosseini has this way of writing that brings every character to life. And even after you close the book, the characters come back to haunt you for several days. He has done a brilliant job, just as he did with Kite Runner. This is a beautiful story about women, relationships between woman and Afghanistan during the 90's. It is a story about this woman Mariam, he childhood as an illegitimate child and her journey through womanhood. It is about how bad her luck was and how it got worse. The story also involves another woman Laila, who was born lucky but her world turns upside down due to the way. The author also given an insight to how the Talibans treated woman and how everything we take for granted like freedom of speech and freedom of life is not free!
Definitely a must-read book. The author has left me craving for more of his work.
