The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

Product Details

The Kite Runner is Khaled Hosseini's celebrated debut novel, a sweeping and emotionally powerful story of friendship, betrayal, and redemption set against the backdrop of a changing Afghanistan. The novel follows Amir, a boy from a wealthy Kabul family, and his closest friend Hassan, the son of his father's servant — a friendship complicated by class, ethnicity, and a single act of cowardice that haunts Amir for the rest of his life.

Spanning decades and continents, from the peaceful streets of 1970s Kabul to the horrors of Taliban rule and the Afghan diaspora in America, The Kite Runner traces Amir's journey toward atonement as he returns to a homeland transformed by war in search of a way to make things right. Woven throughout are vivid depictions of Afghan culture and tradition, including the kite-fighting tournaments that give the novel its title and symbolize both innocence and loss.
