Reviews
Raisa
Apart from these, Hosseini sketches out an array of fascinating characters – Nabi, the uncle; Idris & Timur, the cousins; Roshana – a Malala-esque character or Gholam – a teenage boy, wise beyond his years. The quality of the book I received is great.
Amazon Customer
Nila Wahdati, the beautiful, troubled wife of a closeted homosexual and adopted mother of Pari is one of the most conflicting characters in the novel. To his credit, even in the most dramatic moments, Hosseini manages to keep it nuanced and restrained. "A moving saga about sacrifice, betrayal, and the power of family"

Despite being a story so vast in time and focus and so rich with subplots and characters, its smooth flow or fluidity is a testament to the skill of this author. About the book:- it's an emotional rollercoaster which shows a relationship between a brother and her younger sister written in a best possible way. Having read “The Kite Runner” and “A Thousand Splendid Suns” a few years ago, I was really looking forward to reading this book.

It is original and well packed. Good quality. To say the least, I would consider myself shortchanged from the literary point of view if I had missed reading this novel.
