And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini - Paperback

Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan, in 1965 and later moved to the United States with his family after they were granted political asylum. Before becoming a full-time writer, he trained as a doctor and worked as an internist. He is the internationally bestselling author of The Kite Runner, A Thousand Splendid Suns and And the Mountains Echoed, with his books published in more than seventy countries and selling over 40 million copies worldwide. He is also a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador and founder of The Khaled Hosseini Foundation, which supports humanitarian assistance for the people of Afghanistan.

Publishers Weekly praised And the Mountains Echoed for its beautiful writing, emotional detail and haunting exploration of loss and identity, while noting that the novel follows an Afghan family across love, war and painful separation.

The Guardian highlighted Hosseini’s powerful storytelling formula of separated siblings, Afghan history, loss, betrayal and redemption, calling attention to the way the novel presents a complex picture of Afghanistan to a wide international readership.

Kirkus Reviews offered a more mixed response, recognizing Hosseini’s imaginative storytelling while criticizing the novel’s many competing storylines and shifts in time and place.

Page Count Notice:

Publishers may employ differing internal methodologies for determining page count. Some base their calculations on numbered pages only, while others include unnumbered pages, blank pages, section dividers, production materials, or other non-numbered content that does not appear in the final pagination visible to the reader.

Accordingly, the publisher’s stated page count may differ—potentially to a significant degree—from the physical numbered pages present in the delivered product.

Variations in pagination, layout, appearance, or other physical attributes are inherent to the publishing and printing process and do not constitute a defect, error, or misdescription on the part of the retailer.

If precise pagination or specific physical characteristics are material to your purchase decision, you are advised to contact us prior to placing an order so that we may assist in verifying details where feasible.
