Hosseini's books have yet to be published in his own country--few have the time and money to read novels, anyway--but he does get letters from Afghans. Most are proud of the world-famous writer their country has produced, but he gets some hate mail too. "They feel that yes, there are problems in Afghanistan, but do we really need to talk about these things? At this time?"

...THINK AMERICA'S ROLE AS THE SOLE SUPERPOWER IS A PROBLEM? Any community with only one dominant power is always a dangerous one and provokes reactions. That's why I favor a multipolar world, in which Europe obviously has its place. Anyway, the world will not be unipolar.

Aimed at youth travelers interested in island hopping and sampling Greek nightlife, the ship offers a floating party experience, taking 170 passengers to popular holiday destinations they might not be able to visit otherwise. Putting into port at Aegean islands like Mykonos and Paros--or undiscovered isles like Folegandros--travelers have an afternoon of fun ashore and then party the night away before setting sail for the next destination. What's the catch? Passengers must book at least two nights on any predetermined route...
