A great book by many measures.

The kite runner book review. The kite runner book review summary. Amir s father baba seems noble and strong but he disapproves of his son s emotional nature. Khaled hosseini the kite runner a gripping and emotional story of betrayal and redemption the kite runner had me thrilled and moved both at the same time.

It has been translated into 42 languages and over 30 million of its copies have been sold around the globe. The kite runner is my first read of khaled hosseini. However it is not gratuitous.

It tells the story of amir and hassan. I have never been to afghanistan before i imagine very few of us have but this book paints such a vivid mental image of life in kabul during the early 70s before the soviet deployment of their army there that i feel as if i have some kind of first hand experience. Struggling through those harsh situations they experience positive and negative consequences.

Guilt the kite runner is emotional and immersive a story that is amplified with its spotlight on society and culture within afganistan both past and present. This is a page turner with complex characters and situations that will make you think hard about friendship good and evil betrayal and redemption. The book kite runner is mostly about the redemption.

The kite runner points to the destructiveness of shame and shows the good that results from forgiving others and yourself. In my opinion everybody faces some kind of challenges in life. The kite runner by khaled hosseini is one of the best books i have read in years.

The kite runner isn t perfect. The kite runner is saved from suckitude by one simple fact. It is a story of two boys amir and hassan based on afghanistan.
