Ten-year-old Abdullah would do anything for his younger sister. In a life of poverty and struggle, with no mother to care for them, Pari is the only person who brings Abdullah happiness. For her, he will trade his only pair of shoes to give her a feather for her treasured collection. When their father sets off with Pari across the desert to Kabul in search of work, Abdullah is determined not to be separated from her. Neither brother nor sister know what this fateful journey will bring them.

There Must be A Movie Made of this Story

I’ve listened to this book three times and I need to listen again to understand the connection between the characters. I loved it!

Beautiful and sad story

Hard to catch in each chapter who is it about. Names of characters would be very helpful

The sorrow of life

I liked Khalid's emphasis on culture and the human condition such as love,caring, pain and emdurance. At times it was difficult to follow the story line

Classic Hosseini

A heartachingly captivating and beautiful portrait of human resilience in the face of brutal odds - classic Hosseini novel brought to life by fabulous narration.

Great story, but a little unfocused

excellent writing style, as expected from Khaled, the story is a bit unfocused for my taste but still great.
I suggest focusing on one narrator rather than 3, since it takes time to adjust hearing one.

Simply beautiful

I love Khaled Hosseini’s writing. His books are always beautifully written and so authentic. The narration is just gorgeous. Absolutely loved this tale of love, loss, and determination in the face of adversity

Beautiful and moving.

A beautiful, mesmerising book. The characters weave through decades of love, loss and secrets set against the tragedy and hardship of modern Afghanistan. All the more moving knowing the current situation there. Highly recommended.

Boring and underwhelming as a Hosseini book

Khaled Hosseini is such a talented author, loved his other books but this book lacked the same quality and depth of his other books. The storylines though interlocked with one another lacked enough development to actually get into the characters. If Hosseini had focused on 1 or 2 plots and developed them it would’ve made this much better.
