A Thousand Splendid Suns
by Khaled Hosseini
This book was incredible! A portrait of two Afghan women whose lives intersect, Suns starts off a bit slowly, but picks up about a third of the way in. It is both beautifully written and heartbreaking; I literally sobbed twice while reading it... moving and enlightening, I was ashamed that I knew so little about the realities of life in Afghanistan before reading this book. It is fairly graphic in places, but not sensationally so... just reality. I immediately moved on to Hosseini's first book, The Kite Runner, and am half way through.
