On one level, The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini is the story of two boys in Afghanistan and
Afghan immigrants in America. It is a story set in a culture that has become of increasing interest to Americans since the September
11, 2001 attacks.
Looking at The Kite Runner as a story about culture, however, misses what the book is really
about. This is a novel about humanity. This is a story about
friendship, loyalty, cruelty, longing for acceptance,
redemption and survival. The core story could be set in any culture because it deals with
issues that are universal.
• Complex, interesting characters
• Suspenseful story - You won't want to put it down
• Believable voice with flashbacks to childhood
• Interesting look at Afghanistan / some graphic images
• A page turning, heart- rending story of friendship and secrets
• Examines heroes in our lives- & what defines them
