SRP 2011 REVIEW: This book was absolutely phenomenal. Its a great story of strength in a troubled time, and offers a rare view into the culture of afghanastan that I have never gotten before. Well written and heart wrenching, it is a great portrayal of the bonds between women and an example of tenacity in hard times.
