Mrs. G. mcmonagle (Filey, England)
THE THOUGHT THAT I COULD HAVE MISSED THIS GEM SADDENS ME, BECAUSE MY USUAL READS ARE WAY DIFFERENT TO THIS BOOK.I WILL WATCH THE NEWS WITH COMPLETELY DIFFERENT EYES NOW. EVERYONE I TALK TO NOW I HAVE TO TELL THEM "YOU MUST READ THIS BOOK" SO THEY TOO CAN GO INTO THE TRAGIC WORLD OF MARIAM A FIFTEEN YEAR OLD GIRL IN WAR TORN AFGHANISTAN. YOU CAN SEE THE COLOURS, FEEL THE PAIN OF ALL THE CHARACTERS,THE LOVE STORY THAT RUNS THROUGH THIS BOOK LEAVES YOU WANTING MORE AT THE END, A BEAUTIFUL READ AS SIMPLE AS THAT!


5 out of 5 stars The best read in ages   January 4, 2009
Mrs. D. J. Rowland (Chesterfield England)
A Thousand Splendid Suns
I have just read this 400+words book and savoured every word. What a fantastic storyteller Hosseini is. At the end of every chapter, I wanted to read the next as they flow into each other.
It is a beautifully told story of love, war, injustices to women and a world that is totally unfamiliar to me - a Westerner. I learned so much from it.
I can't wait to get my hands on his first book now, 'The Kite Runner.'



5 out of 5 stars I thought Kite Runner was good, this is even better   December 30, 2008
Moz (Birmingham England)
This is a heart rending tale of two women living through the political anarchy of Afghanistan over the last fifty years. We in the west should hang our heads in shame for the part we have played in this nightmare. I thought Kite Runner was excellent but it is a pale shadow set against this beautifully crafted tale.
You engage 100% with the characters and their impossible lives. I challenge you not to be moved to tears through parts of this book. The abuse they accept as part of their daily lives is made commonplace in this environment. The injustice of it all, the shameless chauvanism of the men - beyond arrogance. This book changes perspectives and, believe me, they need changing!!
