About the Novel
We were able to pick our own independent novel that the plot has human rights violations, that we had to read throughout part of the semester. The novel that I had decided to read was A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini. The main focus is the struggles that Mariam and Laila go through to try and survive the human rights violations that occur in Afghanistan.
