The differences are though that in Hamlet the women chose to go to the men and let them control their lives. In A Thousand Splendid Suns the women don’t have much of a choice, other than to go and marry the men that want them. The women in Hamlet don’t know any other way of living than to depend on a man for everything. Another difference is you can tell that in Hamlet the women aren’t really main characters, but in A Thousand Splendid Suns they are the main characters and are discussed way more than the men are. Also in Hamlet the women are very dependent on the men in every way, but in A Thousand Splendid Suns the women have to listen to the men, but they have other women to depend on, they aren’t looking for the man to tell them their every move. An example of this would be in Hamlet, Ophelia always goes to her father or brothers before doing anything and Gertrude loses her husband and doesn’t know what to do, so she immediately remarries her deceased husband’s brother. In A Thousand Splendid Suns the women have each other to kind of talk to and they also try and help one another out. Laila and Mariam form a bond over the fact that they are married to the same man. They most likely would of never found each other, but by them being married to the same man, they are going through the same dealings together so they help one other through
