A Thousand Splendid Suns
I agree what it wrote on the book cover: "A stirring read.... almost impossible to resist." This book is written by Khaled Hosseini, writer of Kite Runner. The book is about the tradegy of 2 Afghan women, Mariam and Laila. They lived in Afghanistan, they served one husband, who had bad temper and loved to use violence. They were suffering during most of the time... war killed their parents, friends, husband beat them by a belt, threw them up against the wall, lived under fear and anxiety...
==========================================
I am lucky as I am living in Hong Kong, a place with freedom. We enjoy equal right, no matter you are man or woman, you are Chinese or American or ethnic minority. It must be a tough life for those who still live with unfair and rigid rule. As different culture, different history, different political and economic background, we always classify Arab World as "secret area", full of danger, secret, unfair and sadness.
I recommend this book if you love Kite Runner, you want to have better understand on Arab World.
