Helpful Score: 1

As with this author's other book, The Kite Runner, the book starts slowly. Then, you are drawn into a world that is so different from our lives in the U.S. The book follows the lives of two Afghan women who become the wives of one brutish older man, and also the children of the younger wife, and all of their relationships. Ultimately it is a story of love and sacrifice. There are parts in the book where your jaw will drop and you will cry and you will grin. It is that good.
