1952, a starry night in the desert, a father tells an Afghan parable to his son and daughter. They are camping in the mountains on their way to Kabul. Breathless, Abdullah and little Pari listen to the story of how one boy has been kidnapped by a terrible dev and the poor boy faces the worst fate in the world. But life is not colored in black and white - not even in fairy tales.... In the morning, father and children will continue their journey to Kabul, and this day will be the turning point of their destinies. They will part, and perhaps forever. The separation of brother and sister will give rise to several intertwining and unraveling stories. And in the center of this web - Pari, named so not in honor of the French capital, but because that is the name of the Farsi fairies. Five generations, many countries and cities will be involved in the parable of life, which unfolds through wars, births, deaths, loves, betrayals and hopes. Khaled Hosseini's new novel, transparent, poignant, multi-voiced, is about how every decision made for another person - for good or evil - has a price, and fate is bound to bill for it. This is a novel about the power of cheap words and expensive deeds, about the insidiousness of life's destiny, about the inevitability of retribution, about noisy cowardice and silent devotion.
