Under the Sun with a book . . .

Another book suggestion for this summer is the book that was chosen as the Mizzou Freshman Reads pick, A Thousand Splendid Suns by Khaled Hosseini and set in Afghanistan. The incoming freshman are recommended a book to read over the summer and then there is a variety of discussion groups and programing that happens in the fall.

If you would like to join in for a great read over the summer here is a link for group discussion. Also here is a great interview on NPR. If you shop now at the bookstore you will find the book on sale for the low price of just $11.00 tax included!

Here is a video with the author talking about his inspiration for the novel.
