After 103 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and with four million copies of The Kite Runner shipped, Khaled Hosseini returns with a beautiful, riveting, and haunting novel that confirms his place as one of the most important literary writers today.
Propelled by the same superb instinct for storytelling that made The Kite Runner a beloved classic, A Thousand Splendid Suns is at once an incredible chronicle of thirty years of Afghan history and a deeply moving story of family, friendship, faith, and the salvation to be found in love.
Born a generation apart and with very different ideas about love and family, Mariam and Laila are two women brought jarringly together by war, by loss and by fate. As they endure the ever escalating dangers around them-in their home as well as in the streets of Kabul--they come to form a bond that makes them both sisters and mother-daughter to each other, and that will ultimately alter the course not just of their own lives but of the next generation. 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.
A stunning accomplishment, A Thousand Splendid Suns is a haunting, heartbreaking, compelling story of an unforgiving time, an unlikely friendship, and an indestructible love.

Despite different backgrounds and different life experiences, the fate of Laila and Mariam was linked by the war and unfortunate marriage. But they did not give in to the sinful system that led women to the weak status for thousands of years. They made effo...
评分胡赛尼,一鸣惊人的作品《追风筝的孩子》,已经是这几年难以被超越的小说,可是让我非常惊讶的是,胡赛尼的第二部小说《灿烂千阳》,居然更甚于前者。在阿富汗战乱的年代下,胡赛尼发挥了极具感染力的叙事技巧,把毁灭的悲剧、细腻的情感与人性的坚韧,往读者的内心更推进...
评分“这个季节的第一场雪怎能如此迷人呢?是因为它让人有机会看到一些依然洁白无瑕、未受糟蹋的东西吗?抑或是它让人在积雪被践踏、变黑之前,能够感受到新季节稍纵即逝的优雅,感受到一个全新的开始?” 当雪开始下的时候,这段文字就这样毫无征兆地浮现出脑海。 怎能如此迷人...
评分本书最后一句话,让我酸了鼻子。失去一个人,会从痛变为纪念。以至于,看完这本书,玛丽雅姆的名字变成一根浅浅扎进肌肤的小木刺,它让你疼却又不剧烈,它那么小却又不好拨出。而,莱拉,你是冥冥之中的使命,遭遇无法摧毁你,因为你是几个生命甚至更多的生命的延续和护卫者...
评分重口味。
评分最后爆泪了,那封信。。。。
评分人们数不清她的屋顶上有多少轮皎洁的月亮,也数不清她的墙壁之后那一千个灿烂的太阳
