ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK 
“A Thousand Splendid Suns” by Khaled Hosseini tells the story of two Afghan women, Mariam and Laila, whose lives intertwine through love, loss, and resilience. Set against the backdrop of war-torn Afghanistan, the novel explores themes of female friendship, sacrifice, and survival under oppressive circumstances. Mariam, born out of wedlock, and Laila, a young girl caught in the chaos of the Soviet-Afghan war, face harsh realities under an abusive husband. The story delves deeply into the struggles of women in Afghanistan, their strength to endure suffering, and the bond they form despite their shared hardships.
