Women's shared traumas in khalid khalid hosseini's selected novels : a thousand splendid suns, the mountains echoed, and the kite runner

Abstract EN

This study looks at some of the novels by Khalid Hosseini, an American writer of Afghan descent.

Khalid Hosseini's novels chiefly, "a thousand splendid suns, and the mountains echoed, and the kite runner" were a huge success, becoming international best-sellers.

what distinguishes these novels is that their main ideas address some of the challenges and difficulties that afghan women face in a patriarchal society.

women face severe dilemmas and trials as a result of exclusion, inequality, violence, discrimination, and a negative perception of women.

the study will also look at spivak's concept of subalternity and how it has come to be associated with women in societies where there is no true equality among its members.

furthermore, the study demonstrates that in societies experiencing violent and persistent internal conflicts and challenges, women are always the main victims and the biggest losers.
