À propos de cet audio

After more than two years on the bestseller lists, Khaled Hosseini returns with a beautiful, riveting, and haunting novel of enormous contemporary relevance.

A Thousand Splendid Suns is a breathtaking story set against the volatile events of Afghanistan's last thirty years—from the Soviet invasion to the reign of the Taliban to post-Taliban rebuilding—that puts the violence, fear, hope and faith of this country in intimate, human terms. It is a tale of two generations of characters brought jarringly together by the tragic sweep of war, where personal lives—the struggle to survive, raise a family, find happiness—are inextricable from the history playing out around them.

Propelled by the same storytelling instinct that made The Kite Runner a beloved classic, A Thousand Splendid Suns is at once a remarkable chronicle of three decades of Afghan history and a deeply moving account of family and friendship. It is a striking, heartwrenching novel of an unforgiving time, an unlikely friendship, and an indestructible love—a stunning accomplishment.©2007 TKR Publications, LLC.

The narrator is terrific. The story kind of slow and boring thru the first half, but without my noticing, I was hooked and fell in love with the characters (truly hate a few of them forever as well). I cried too much. Had far too much empathy and confused what-are-you-doings, but do believe that's one of the joys of reading: that we can learn about other people and the ways of others and hopefully become better people ourselves as a result of the journey.
A really good book. Really good. This one will be with me for a very long time.

poignant. terrible. love this book.

This is a beautiful novel and introduced me to a world I would not have known about. I must also compliment the narrator. Her reading was so lovely and flawless. It made the novel even more enjoyable. She’s very talented.

Incredible story and narration.

The story is one of joy, hope, heartbreak, violence and redemption. When I bought it I saw that someone had complained of the narrator’s accent. I think her mild English accent adds to the imagery, to the story, and brings life to the characters. I enjoyed it a great deal.

A heartwarming yet heartbreaking story of love, violence and war

This was a wonderful book. I listened to it on Audible, and I think it would have been better to read it, but the narrator did a good job. This is a story of two strong women who were part of the history of Afghanistan for the past 30 years, from the Russian takeover to the Taliban and beyond. I have to admit that I put off reading this book because I didn't think it would measure up to The Kite Runner, but it did and then some. This is a story of two strong women who are thrown together under very stressful circumstances. Miriam was 15 years old when she was bequeathed to a much older man. She left a home where she did not get along with her mother, but adored her father and brother. She became pregnant and lost her baby, and many others besides. Her husband was a brutal man and shunned Mariam. When another young girl is brought into her home as a second wife, Mariam.did not allow herself to get attached to Laila until Rasheed, their husband, started beating and abusing her as well. A strong alliance is formed between these two women and Laila's two children are also part of the bond, and inevitably, when something horrible happens, they align themselves together. This is a gut-wrenching and difficult story to read and in my case, listen to. But it is a story that must be told. Hosseini has done a marvellous job with this story, and it has become a modern classic. His characters are so real, and his history elements so exact. I am sorry I waited so long to read this book. I fell in love with Miriam and Laila and marvelled at their strength and forbearance.

A stunner of a book!
