  |Character Information|

 

Afghan-American novelist Hosseini follows up his bestselling The Kite Runner with another searing epic of Afghanistan in turmoil. The story covers three decades of anti-Soviet jihad, civil war and Taliban tyranny through the lives of two women. Mariam is the scorned illegitimate daughter of a wealthy businessman, forced at age 15 into marrying the 40-year-old Rasheed, who grows increasingly brutal as she fails to produce a child. Later, Rasheed takes another wife, 14-year-old Laila, a smart and spirited girl whose only other options, after her parents are killed by rocket fire, are prostitution or starvation. Against a backdrop of unending war, Mariam and Laila become allies in an asymmetrical battle with Rasheed, whose violent misogyny-"There was no cursing, no screaming, no pleading, no surprised yelps, only the systematic business of beating and being beaten"-is endorsed by custom and law.

Hosseini gives a forceful but nuanced portrait of a patriarchal despotism where women are agonizingly dependent on fathers, husbands and especially sons, the bearing of male children being their sole path to social status. His tale is a powerful, harrowing depiction of Afghanistan, but also a lyrical evocation of the lives and enduring hopes of its resilient characters.

暢銷小說《追風(fēng)箏的人》的作者、阿富汗裔美國作家卡勒德·胡賽尼將于2007年5月22日出版新作《燦爛千陽》。 這部小說以反蘇杰哈德、阿富汗內(nèi)戰(zhàn)和塔利班專政為背景,講述了兩個女人的一生。

Mariam和Laila生活在一個家長專制的社會里,那里的女人都要服從自己的父親、丈夫和兒子,只有生兒子才能讓她們獲得社會地位。對于她們的丈夫Rasheed來說,“在我這里,不允許詛咒、尖叫、懇求和嚎叫,只有每日例行的打與被打?!倍@一暴行是社會和法律認可的。

該書的出版社Riverhead評價此書為一部“阿富汗30年歷史的揪心記錄,一部關(guān)于家庭、友誼、信念和因愛得救的極其動人的故事?!?/p>
