"The Patience Stone" (also known as "The Stone of Patience" or in French, "La Pierre de patience") is a novel by Iranian-French writer Marjan Shiahesl, but it seems there might be confusion with another work. A more widely known work is "The Patience Stone" by Atiq Rahimi, an Afghan-French writer.

Atiq Rahimi's novel, "The Patience Stone" (original title: "La Pierre de patience"), was published in 2009. The book is about a young Afghan couple whose lives are drastically changed when the woman becomes a "patience stone", a mythical stone in Afghan culture that listens to confessions.
