‧睽違六年，胡賽尼終於推出全新小說，消息一出即獲得國際媒體高度讚嘆，空降亞馬遜排行榜預購前十名！
‧「我的前兩本書是關於父親與母親，這一本十分不同，這是關於一代傳一代的家庭故事，手足之間的友愛及背叛、以及如何從彼此傷害後，找尋犧牲奉性的動人光芒。」－《追風箏的孩子》暢銷作者胡賽尼
故事從一對兄妹開始。帕尼和阿布拉原本是一對住在阿富汗喀布爾邊遠地區的兄妹，彼此感情十分深厚，每天最期待的事情就是晚上，因為父親會講有趣的床邊故事。無奈好景不長，中東戰亂動盪不安，因戰爭人禍導致彼此最終走向不同的道路，對於家庭與人性的試煉接踵而來，而最後從母親口中吐出的真相，也將震撼所有人‧‧‧
本書背景從中東的阿富汗到歐洲的巴黎，再從希臘到美國，作者胡賽尼再度展現他動容流暢的文筆，勾織成一部令人感動落淚的家庭故事，而其中牽涉的人物看似彼此平行發展，但胡賽尼在最後一刻完美地將彼此故事交錯，展現出一流作家的寫作天賦，讓讀者恍然大悟後流下感動的淚水。（文／博客來編譯）
A novel by the bestselling author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns.
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.
