Paperback. Condition: Good. 432 pages. A vivid, unforgettable story of an unlikely sister hood-an emotionally powerful and haunting tale of friendship that illuminates the plight of women in a traditional culture-from th e author of the bestselling The Pearl That Broke Its Shell and Wh en the Moon Is Low. For two decades, Zeba was a loving wife, a p atient mother, and a peaceful villager. But her quiet life is sha ttered when her husband, Kamal, is found brutally murdered with a hatchet in the courtyard of their home. Nearly catatonic with sh ock, Zeba is unable to account for her whereabouts at the time of his death. Her children swear their mother could not have commit ted such a heinous act. Kamal's family is sure she did, and deman ds justice. Barely escaping a vengeful mob, Zeba is arrested and jailed. As Zeba awaits trial, she meets a group of women whose o wn misfortunes have also led them to these bleak cells: thirty-ye ar-old Nafisa, imprisoned to protect her from an honor killing; t wenty-five-year-old Latifa, who ran away from home with her teena ge sister but now stays in the prison because it is safe shelter; and nineteen-year-old Mezhgan, pregnant and unmarried, waiting f or her lover's family to ask for her hand in marriage. Is Zeba a cold-blooded killer, these young women wonder, or has she been im prisoned, as they have been, for breaking some social rule? For t hese women, the prison is both a haven and a punishment. Removed from the harsh and unforgiving world outside, they form a lively and indelible sisterhood. Into this closed world comes Yusuf, Ze ba's Afghan-born, American-raised lawyer, whose commitment to hum an rights and desire to help his motherland have brought him back . With the fate of this seemingly ordinary housewife in his hands , Yusuf discovers that, like Afghanistan itself, his client may n ot be at all what he imagines. A moving look at the lives of mod ern Afghan women, A House Without Windows is astonishing, frighte ning, and triumphant.
