The Pearl That Broke Its Shell by Nadia Hashimi

4.0

Very well written. But allow me to say that it will be a very long time before I read anything from Afghanistan again. I am traumatized by the experiences the characters endured. It felt like I was reading 'A thousand splendid sons' again. The hoping and praying the women would make it to the end of the book alive. The book was good, but I hope I will recover.
