Just finished H's book club book A Thousand Splendid Suns.
Just as with Kite Runner, the book is tragic in its reality and a very compelling tale of Afganistan, this time from more of a woman's perspective.
I suck at reviews, but suffice it to say it is a splendid book and a very worthy read. It is heartbreaking to think of the lot of women under the rule of fundamentalist Islam. IMO, the over through of the Taliban in Afganistan is possibly the greatest good that has come out the entire war on terror. Good on the order of the US civil war's effect on slavery.
Get it, it's a page turner and will open your eyes a bit if you are from America.
