DESCRIPTION
And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini
opens with a father recounting a haunting folktale to his two young children before making a devastating decision that separates a brother and sister for decades. From this single act, Hosseini builds an intricate, multigenerational story that moves across Kabul, Paris, San Francisco, and the Greek island of Tinos, exploring how family bonds nurture, wound, and endure across time and distance. Told through nine chapters, each narrated by a different character, the novel departs from the singular focus of Hosseini's earlier work to create a rich mosaic of loss, identity, and connection. Published by Riverhead Books, this reprint edition continues to draw new readers into one of the most acclaimed novels from the bestselling author of The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns.
