A Thousand Splendid Suns

Read this amazing story by Khalid Hosseini the other day...its very touching and thought provoking story of two afghani women and their struggle for survival and freedom under the savage rule of taliban....
its really difficult for someone like me to fathom the senseless cruelty that they were subjected to and why...but its a story of bravery,courage and survival in that unforgiving land which will inspire the women in similar situations to dig their heels and fight back and generate compassion in the rest of us...
