This book tells the story of two women living in Kabul, Afghanistan. Though born in very different circumstances, they are led to share the same great misfortune- one because of birth, one because of war, both because of tragedy.
This is not a pleasant or light read, it is in fact emotionally brutal at nearly every turn. There is hope at the end, but you will come to it gasping with a thirst for it, like a desert traveler finding water at last.
