The Bookseller of Kabul

I enjoy reading about different customs and cultures. This book was more than I expected. Although one cannot assume the story was of a typical family in Kabul, the author does make us believe many are similar. The details in the book were just enough to visualize and the story flow was well written. I was shocked, and yet not too much, by both the physical and mental abuse of women. So glad I live in a country where this type of suppression is not tolerated. I already passed the book on to someone else to read.
