A "Splendid Read"

A Thousand Splendid Suns- The only way I can describe this book is heart-wrenching and beautifully written. A Thousand Splendid Suns invites the reader into the lives of two Afghani women, Mariam and Laila, whose lives become entwined when they become the wives of the same cruel husband. This is an interesting look into societal norms and the detrimental role "taboo" issues in society play by discouraging people to address them. This is one page-turner you do not want to miss!
