Eyebrow Burn And Swelling

About Women for Women-A Thousand Splendid Suns



"A Thousand Splendid Suns" is a book well known among bloggers and widely praised. After this I like to go, especially since the details of the situation of Muslim women knew very little.

This is the story of two different women. Mariam - illegitimate child and serving the rich. He lives alone with his mother in terrible conditions and has no chance to acquire education. My father seems to her husband at a young age for podstarzaƂego man just would not have lived with him and his wives after the death of his mother.
Lajla a girl from a different environment - her father, mother and respects him very keen on the fact that the daughter was trained. Unfortunately, their family is no longer the same when the two brothers Lajli killed during the war.

These two seemingly different women in all age, national origin, dreams, but their fates intertwined because of one man-Rashid - cruel man who is alien to respect for women.

Events are supported by historical background of-war in Afghanistan in the 70's, the Governments of the communists, then the Taliban, then the events after 2001, which further enriched my perception of the book.

I think this novel that every woman should read-a very moving, sometimes shocking, and describing to us what our culture has no place: helpless women, who on his side do not have anyone, not even justice.
