And the Mountains Echoed [B0617]

2014 PB in nice clean condition. 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, writes 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.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "This author brings a foreign world to life. Poignant, well-written about Afghanistan and the human condition."; "All of the characters' stories are woven together in a beautifully intricate way. The last page had me in tears!"; "Some of the most beautiful descriptive reading I have ever had the pleasure to enjoy. It's like six different short stories but each story has a character or two from a previous story...sometimes generations apart. An amazing author."
