As they endure the ever-escalating dangers around them-in their home as well as in the streets of Kabul-they come to form a bond that makes them both sisters and mother-daughter to each other, and that will ultimately alter the course not just of their own lives but of the next generation. With heart-wrenching power and suspense, Hosseini shows how a woman's love for her family can move her to shocking and heroic acts of self-sacrifice, and that in the end it is love, or even the memory of love, that is often the key to survival. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A stunning accomplishment, \u003ci\u003eA Thousand Splendid Suns \u003c\/i\u003eis a haunting, heartbreaking, compelling story of an unforgiving time, an unlikely friendship, and an indestructible love.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49559116382481,"sku":"GOR001889099","price":6.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50053826576657,"sku":"CIN8498382327VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50113455423761,"sku":"CIN8498382327G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50176276463889,"sku":"GOR009907570","price":5.9,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51476364099857,"sku":"GOR011055514","price":6.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52994491777297,"sku":"GOR007631093","price":6.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/8498382327.jpg?v=1751428674","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/products\/mil-soles-esplendidos-a-thousand-splendid-suns-book-khaled-hosseini-9788498382327","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
