Title: Emotionally beat-up by a book!
Review: I feel used. The book exposes the reader to all the sadness and tragedy of recent Afghan history. That's okay. However, at what emotionally cost. The book is still a fictionalized account. I was very upset to read one child being sodomized, but when a second child is brutally and repeatedly sodomized, I skipped forward to read the end, and put the book away. The book could have accomplished its purpose without that. It had great potential.
