I can't express enough how much I enjoyed this novel, it is the kind that you become so involved with it. It brings tears and pain to you, as well as smiles. It has so much reality in it as well. I recommend it to everyone.
I just bought today the other novel of the same writer, A thousand Splended Suns, which is suppose to be very good as well.
The other novel that I have read in Turkey is Harem; a journey of love. It is written by Asli Sancar who has done a great deal of research on the subject of harems It is not my type of novels but it did clear so much misunderstandings I had like many others about the Ottoman empire harems, the way it run and the way they are treated.
I will be reading my other novel now, so till then...Enjoy your time and tell us what you have been reading :)..

Rialive,
I totally agree, a book that touches your soul and makes you cry is a good one :)..
I have just finished 'thousand splendid son" amazing as well..can make you really cry ..
Thank you my sis <3 :)
I thought 'A Thoughsand splendid Suns' was no where near the leaue of 'The Kite Runner'. For the first time I felt that the movie was better than the novel when I saw The Kite Runner. I think the writter just wrote A Thousand Splendid Suns for the sake of writing another book following his best seller...I didn't like it really.
