I tore through this book. Literally read it in about eight hours (my day off). It was an entertaining read, and sad, but I wasn't uplifted by it; it lacked profundity. It's not one of the books that I would read again and again. But maybe that's got to do with the fact that I prefer happier stories. No one will deny that women have always, and continue to, have it hard. Life sucks for women, and it sucks harder if you live in a war-torn, third world country. Mariam is the bastard child of a local wealthy dude who has three wives and umpteen children (I'm sorry, but why couldn't the household expand to take in another wife and child???), and she and her mother are exiled to a little hovel, outside of town. Her father visits her once a week, and her mother, an embittered woman, constantly rains down negativity. But as it turns out, this negativity is well-founded, for when Mariam's mother kills herself, her father's wives pressure and nag him into marrying her off to Rasheen, an abusive, oppressive lout of a man. (Incidentally, this is a darn good example of how women often are each other's worst enemies.) Not long after, Laila is introduced into the story--first as a baby, and then a nine year old girl. We see the eventual crumbling and encroaching misery of Afghanistan through her eyes, although she does not realize how profoundly this will affect her until the day a bomb drops on her house and kills her parents, leaving her a 14 year old orphan. Rasheen manipulates her into marrying him, and this is when Mariam and Laila's lives become intertwined. Hosseini's writing is narrative and straightforward rather than lyrical and evocative, but still a good read.
