Book Review of A Thousand Splendid Suns

A Thousand Splendid Suns


The Kite Runner was one of my favorite contemporary novels, but A Thousand Splendid Suns is way better! The story follows the lives of two women in Afghanistan, and lets the reader catch a glimpse of the oppression of women under extremist Muslim rule. It is a heart wrenching story, but a must read!
