Publisher Description

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.

And the mountains echoed

Very skilled and talented author. The chapters do not always flow well so you may struggle to pick up the story from one to the next. I don’t understand why so many authors have to now interject homosexuality in their stories. 95 %+ of the world is heterosexual and it would have been a better book without it.

Purple ace ,

Disappointing!

I have read the author's precious two books, Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, and enjoyed each immensely. This book does not live up to the depth of plot and character development of the others- not remotely close. There are different story lines going but are only partially developed and then either rushed through to an end or just abandoned. There was potential for development and it just wasn't realized.

My views

The book starts off very well. Towards the end I felt it was too melodramatic and predictable. Over all a good read but not of the standard of "the Kite runner".
