Khaled Hosseini: The Kite Runner
Growing up together in Kabul, Amir and Hassan share a childhood shaped by friendship, loyalty and a moment that will change their lives forever. Against the turbulent history of Afghanistan, Khaled Hosseini tells a powerful story of guilt, redemption, family and the enduring consequences of the choices we make.
Twelve-year-old Amir is desperate to win the approval of his father and resolves to win the local kite-fighting tournament, to prove that he has the makings of a man. His loyal friend Hassan promises to help him – for he always helps Amir - but this is 1970s Afghanistan and Hassan is merely a low-caste servant who is jeered at in the street, although Amir still feels jealous of his natural courage and the place he holds in his father's heart. But neither of the boys could foresee what would happen to Hassan on the afternoon of the tournament, which was to shatter their lives. After the Russians invade and the family is forced to flee to America, Amir realises that one day he must return, to find the one thing that his new world cannot grant him: redemption.
