And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini(preloved)

And the Mountains Echoed is a novel by Khaled Hosseini that spans generations and continents, exploring the complex relationships between family members. The story begins with a brother, Abdullah, and his sister, Pari, growing up in a remote Afghan village. When Pari is sold to a wealthy couple in Kabul, the separation profoundly impacts both siblings and sets the stage for a story that weaves through multiple characters and timelines.

As the novel unfolds, it explores themes of sacrifice, love, loss, and the ways in which our actions ripple through the lives of others. The narrative jumps between various perspectives—families torn apart by war, children abandoned by parents, and strangers whose lives are unknowingly connected. Hosseini paints a moving portrait of the bonds that shape us and the emotional costs of life’s most difficult decisions.

The novel is rich in its exploration of human emotions, cultural tensions, and the enduring power of family ties across borders and generations.
