Books
Forgive the ignorance of this question...i am American after all, it comes with the territory. :=) Anyhoo, wondering if the censors would have a field day if I brought books like the Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini. It's a book about Muslim people, but i don;t think it's controversial in anyway. Any thoughts? Are Hosseini's books available in doha?
Telljax,
Where are the regular bookstores in Doha?? We have been to quite a few places called "Bookstores" but have everything but regular novels. Please help. My Mom and husband love to read and we have been to Carrefour and Giant Store to buy books but on a more regular basis are there any places where second hand books are available? Thanks

Thanks guys. Telljax, I completely agree the Kite Runner is one of the best books i've read in recent years. I'm a total bookaholic. Just got his next book, A Thousand Splendid Suns, and am trying not to read it now so i can ship it with me. After reading all those posts about doha being boring, i figured i should come prepared. :=)
my sis got me kiterunner by khaled hossini last week and i just finished reading it yesterday..its an awesome book
dont knw wetther its available in qatar but ur welcome to borrow mine if u cant get it here...cudn't keep the book down....really insightful
I noticed several books by Salman Rushdie in Virgin with one noticeable exception.
I shipped most of my books down here last year and all the books got through okay.
Virgin or a secondhand copy. Good luck...
