The Bookseller of Kabul


So far I found this book really interesting to read. I like how the issues it presents aren’t presented in the way they are in articles. It’s weird reading about how other women in other societies and religions are treated, since we don't see it here in America. To think of a man having more than one wife, is strange, and to want another wife because one is too old seems a little bit harsh. But that's how it is in their society; however the women of the Islamic society do not seem ok about what is going unlike the men.

  1. I think its totally crazy how men can have more than one wife and would be pissed if I had to share my husband with someone.

  2. It is unusual for a man to have so many wives, but to us that is our kind of culture and the way we are raised

  3. It's crazy to think that cultures can vary in how they view polygamy and women.

  4. It's interesting to see and read about different cultures and how things operate in their countries. Certain things that take place may seem weird to us because America operates differently than these countries.
