About this listen

An unforgettable novel about finding a lost piece of yourself in someone else.

Khaled Hosseini, the #1 New York Times–bestselling author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, has written a new novel about how we love, how we take care of one another, and how the choices we make resonate through generations. In this tale revolving around not just parents and children but brothers and sisters, cousins and caretakers, Hosseini explores the many ways in which families nurture, wound, betray, honor, and sacrifice for one another; and how often we are surprised by the actions of those closest to us, at the times that matter most. Following its characters and the ramifications of their lives and choices and loves around the globe—from Kabul to Paris to San Francisco to the Greek island of Tinos—the story expands gradually outward, becoming more emotionally complex and powerful with each turning page.

it felt like connected short stories instead of 1 narrative. could have really done without the 2 chapters in the latter half based on Marco's. it was ambitious but did not quite hit like his earlier novels, still a good book that I recommend reading if you like his work.

great performance but not his best story

I loved this beautifully written book. I could clearly see the places and people as if I was among them. I began to panic towards the end as the time was running down simply because I didn’t want it to end.

I loved it

Read all of Khaled Hosseini's books in the past two weeks and I am enchanted by his style. Those are those type of books you can not put down once started. This one was geniusly written and the detailed level of character description is transposing you in their world. A world of unimaginable pain, but also beauty, friendship, love, passion and determination

Beautifully intricated
