A Thousand Splendid Suns

Wow, yeah. This book is hard to read, because of the domestic abuse, but if you can stand it, it is also such a fascinating window into the last few decades of Afghanistan's history, powerful, full of tension. You will be rooting for these two women and looking forward to the liberation of Kabul as much as they did - will it be in time to save them? Even more poignant given that we have now gone back to the days of the Taliban. OK, don't despair, there are light moments! - one detail that sticks with me is when the Titanic craze hits Taliban-controlled Kabul - Titanic burkhas!

En este libro el autor nos vuelve a trasladar a la vida en Afganistán y en concreto a la vida de dos mujeres muy diferentes cuya vida queda unida y deben hacer frente a la adversidad. El libro detalla muy bien la vida de los afganos y los distintos conflictos bélicos que han padecido y no por ello deja de ser un libro de fácil lectura que te consigue atrapar por momentos. Sin duda es un libro que recomiendo.
