In my book, the conflict has been person versus nature. Mariam and Laila were both pulled away from their childhood, even though their childhoods the best, by death. I could never go through what these two young ladies have gone through, could you? Mariam lost her mother, and Laila lost her mother, father, and best friend. Mariam is a scared, young girl that Rasheed uses to his advantage. When Rasheed finds Laila, she is disconbobulated and will never be the same as she was before. I think she doesn't want to be the same because all the people she loved are gone.
EX) Mr. Kerr is a fat, hairy English teacher. (from the notes YOU {mr. kerr} gave us)

"A Thousand Splendid Suns" is CRAAAZZYY!!! Mariam's transformation from being Nana's little girl, to not being wanted by anyone, and then to being married and miscarrying several times. I reacted in complete shock, I'm a fifteen year old girl and I know I would not be able to handle what Mariam went through in a matter of months. I think this book is very interesting, but it is a VERY mature book. It is eyeopening.
