Quote from Sirens of Baghdad by Yasmin Khadra

The man who feeds on another’s cowardice nourishes his soul and sooner or later it devours his guts and then his soul.

That is well said. I don’t know the book. Is it a novel?

@Harmonium1923 yes it is. The author has some very good books, Swallows of Kabul is one of my favourites

@Jenny1234 Thanks! Have you read The Kite Runner and A Thousand Splendid Suns, both by Khaled Hosseini? Also set in Afghanistan. I really enjoyed them, although they’re pretty emotional.

@Harmonium1923

Yes, I have read and i own both of them. I love reading books about Afghanistan, especially the women and their lives. I have several others on my Goodreads list. I’ll let you know what they are.

@Harmonium1923 here are the other books I’ve read about Afghanistan and other areas in the Middle East

@Jenny1234 That’s quite a list! What did you think of “and the Mountains Echoed” and “Reading Lolita…”? Those have been on my “maybe” list for a while.
