Summary
Khaled Hosseini: And they echoed above (2nd edition)
In an Afghan village in 1952, poor Sabur tells the children, ten-year-old Abdullah and three-year-old Pari, the story of a boy who was taken away by a demon. However, the very next day, that story will take on more real, much more ominous tones; In order to survive, Sabur will be forced to give his daughter to a rich childless couple in the city of Kabul. That decision, in the decades that will follow, will mark the descendants and acquaintances of the family, traveling all over the world - from Kabul, through Paris and San Francisco, to the Greek island of Tinos - and constantly spreading, with increasingly complex and moving consequences.
