Kabul Beauty School: An American Woman Goes Behind the Veil

The stories of the women were very moving, I didnt have a great deal of respect for the author though. She left her two boys at home and went overseas to help others off and on for years. She became the 2nd wife of Afghan Man. They fought alot and threw things at each other. His first wife gets pregnant with their 8th child. She weeps often. But she helps many women. Her husband has some business connections that are helpful so marrying him was a smart move. I think she was kinda lost too, and these women helped her find some answers.

Despite how I felt about the authors behavior, I thought the book was well done. It also explained better than any other book I have read, about the different Tribes.
