A THOUSAND SPLENDID SUNS. BOOK THAT ISN'T ABOUT SUFFERING BUT WHAT SUFFERING FAILS TO DESTROY.
I personally feel that thousand splendid suns is a book about what happens when two women who are helpless, bound by same fate becomes each other life line.
I expected the relationship between mariam and laila to be bitter honestly. While reading it, I was hundred percent sure that mariam would have hated laila for her decision but she didn't. Mariam saw a helpless little girl and a mother instead of a woman who stole her husband. These two women together faced their husband's Rasheed toxic enviroment but sadly at last only one could escape.
Mariam, a little girl, blisfully unaware of who her father really was, kept waiting for him and after her fight with her mother, went to live with him only to realise that her father never really wanted her and visited her out of guilt. From a very young age she understood the word betrayal and unwanted.
Laila a girl full of spirit had her life torn apart ib between wars between two nations and had to say goodbye to her love of life tariq.
Despite the ongoing war, these two found comfort in each other.
Hosseini's character feel like symbols. They weren't made to actually represented afghanistan or any political party. There were made to represent those struggling womens who are yet to find their courage and voice.
The older I get, the more I realise is that some books leaves memorable impact behind because in those characters we see the harsh, cold reality.
The thousand splendid suns was never just another one of the book to me. It always felt close to me because only after reading it did I realise what freedom actually costs.
