    COMPLEX STUDY OF AFGHANI FAMILY RELATIONSHIPS
  

*by S***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2018*

Afghanistan, a stony land of rugged landscape and beautiful vistas, is home to a people with intense views of life and an existence filled with hardship.  It has been this way for thousands of years and modern times have done nothing to ease their hardscrabble search for peace.Author Khalid Hosseini was born there and left at age eleven, eventually becoming a doctor in the United States.  “And The Mountains Echoed,” is his third novel about Afghanistan, all of them huge commercial successes.  This book might be the most intense and is more difficult to read, but there are other considerations that make it most engrossing.  For example, the author has filled it with many more characters, always a difficult writing task to overcome, and has eliminated most reference to the oppressive Taliban, concentrating on complex family relationships rather than military conflict.  The Afghans are intense and passionate people, making these alliances very interesting to readers that enjoy that sort of thing.There are at least eight major characters connected with the initial incident of a father selling his young girl to a wealthy couple.  The chapters are written almost as short stories about various aspects of the decision.  The plot travels rapidly through the years recounting incidents that impact relatives and friends, weaving story upon story that involve different types of narration and connection.  Some have said the excessive characters add depth to the author’s probing of the initial circumstance.The scope of the novel is larger than I have space to describe it.  We have love, jealousy, betrayal, and loyalty; in short, all the ways people interact with others.  Hosseini portrays them in exquisite language and sensitivity.  He captures the radiance and the sadness of familial relationships.  Some critics have panned the use of so many characters.  Other reviewers have called the novel “masterfully crafted” and “emotionally gripping.”  It’s a great read and I highly recommend it.Schuyler T WallaceAuthor of TIN LIZARD TALES

The problem is finding the words to describe the experience of reading this book!  I absolutely sunk into it - was overcome by the power and beauty of his writing.  Reading an online  summary of the story and character descriptions after I finished the book helped clear some of the confusion I had about the characters - esp in the the latter chapters - but I'm glad I didn't read that before reading the book, and wouldn't advise that - might spoil the story surprises.  Each chapter covers different characters in the story - characters so fascinating, I would love to have had much much more on each one.  I was struck time and again about how "real" I felt the people and situations played out - often not what I would chose for them, but the way life actually happens. Oh, I really loved this book!  Please, if anyone is reading this, and knows of more books you felt were this good, I would love a recommendation.  I haven't enjoyed reading a book this much in while.

    Fill These Holes Inside Of Me
  

*by R***7 on Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2018*

And The Mountains Echoed is about the unbreakable bond between Abdullah and his little sister Pari who are growing up in a far flung small village in Afghanistan. Unfortunately, Abdullah and Pari's father is faced with an incredibly difficult decision that rips their family apart and sets the entire family on lifelong paths of interminable searching.I thought nothing could be better than The Kite Runner until I read A Thousand Splendid Suns. Then I thought nothing could be better than A Thousand Splendid Suns until I read this book. I could speak about how poetically Hosseini writes, how expertly he recreates the voice of children or about how his characters are human in a way that makes them feel unnervingly familiar but I'd rather speak about the themes he explores in this book.And The Mountains Echoed is an incredibly moving book about familial ties and ties that feel familial. How do we create a home and lay foundations for the future when you have no idea what home feels like? Hosseini explores how far people go to fill the gaping holes within them and how far people will go to fill the gaping holes they have created in other people. There are so many holes in all our lives; holes of sacrifice, holes of longing, holes of hurt that cause us to search for remedies that may or may not exist or even cure us.I was incredibly impressed by the scope of this book especially considering its length. It spans continents, eras and multiple versions of life without ever getting the reader lost or confused. I was also impressed by how closely it resembled real life in all its complicated glory.
