A beautifully written book. This book really taught me alot about Afghanistan and what all really happened there. I feel as though i was really taught and saw Afghanistan as a place people live and are from and not just what was always in the news. The way Housseini writes feels so real that I had to keep reminding myself that this was not a memoir. A truly sad and tragic story but so so important.
