Under the Persimmon Tree by Suzanne Fisher Staples

4.0

A carefully woven story of an American woman and an Afghani girl living and/or surviving in Afghanistan and Pakistan in the years immediately following the 9/11 attacks. A very engaging story with a perspective I've never read before. I only wish that it didn't switch between first person for Najmah's parts and third person for Nusrat's parts.
