Afghan-American novelist Hosseini follows up his best-sellingThe Kite Runnerwith another searing epic of Afghanistan in turmoil.

Mariam and Laila are two women brought jarringly together by war, loss and fate. With heart-wrenching power and suspense, Hosseini shows how a woman’s love for her family can move her to shocking and heroic acts of self-sacrifice, and that, in the end, it is love – or even the memory of love – that is often the key to survival.
