On the Awakening of Female Consciousness in A Thousand Splendid Suns
Chapter One Introduction
Khaled Hosseini (1965-?), an Afghan-American novelist, was born on March 4, 1965 in Kabul, Afghanistan. His father worked as a diplomat for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Kabul while his mother worked as a Persian language teacher at a girls high school. At the age of 11, he moved with his family to Paris for his father’s job, but was not able to return to Afghanistan because of the April 1978 Saur Revolution. So later they made their residence in San Jose, California, the United States. After his graduation from college, he became a doctor in California and kept practicing medicine for over ten years, until a year and a half after the release of The Kite Runner, which brought him an extensive range of popularity and fame. However, the surprisingly perfect start didn’t give him much pressure. Book reviewers spoke even higher of his following 2 books: A Thousand Splendid Suns(2007) and And the Mountains Echoed(2013).
