This is by far one of my favorite reads. I wrote a grant for it to be read by my sophomore English students too. It's that well done. The story is of two women who meet quite accidently in Afghanistan. The history of this country is present in the text, along with the treatment of women. It's a brutal read but tells the truth of women. We Americans have much to be thankful for indeed. Give it a try; you will be hooked too if you like historical fiction at all.
