The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini is about Amir, a boy from Afghan who is trying to find “a way to be good again.” Amir had a dream to become a writer but he had a difficult time trying to accomplish it since there were many obstacles that he had to overcome. Khaled wanted to show how Amir can step up in what he believed in after so many years of regret. Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul so his knowledge of the events that occurred is fairly accurate. The imagery of the novel was specific in many different aspects. Khaled wanted to show the world what was happening in Kabul and the awful power of the Taliban and the impact was greater because the story starred a boy and his struggles in life. In The Kite Runner Amir and Hassan, Amir’s servant, were both raised together and according to Baba, Amir’s father, this made them have a bond between each other. So the two would play, and read under a pomegranate even though Hassan could not read for he was a servant. The two both had different roles in each others ordinary life; Hassan would prepare Amir’s clothes while Amir ate the breakfast that Hassan just prepared for him. Their lives were so different from each other, yet Hassan did not care of their difference and thought the world of him; yet Amir did not think the same way. As time went on Amir desperately wanted to gain favor of Baba’s approval since Baba thought his son as a weakling. So when the kite tournament came around he decided to win it in order to gain his approval, but a turn of events makes Amir’s life change for ever. Having these obstacles makes the reader want to know how Amir can possibly find the answer or a way out. The types of things that Amir finds out are not always pleasant but he had to hear so he could make the right choice. As the book nears the end things start to go hay wire and Amir thinks that in the end that perhaps he can start over. Through all the struggles that he had to go through he thinks that he has finally stood up like the man Baba always wanted him to be and for that he will try his best to succeed. But the road was not easy; he had to risk his life for another and had to bear the thought of losing someone else he cared for, again. The book contain much emotion and struggles that it had me flipping to next page wanting to know what was going to happening next. Khaled bought forth many topics and he explained them very well that the reader would never fell utterly lost. Such as how if someone fails to redeem themselves over and over again there is always hope for another opportunity and how there is always someone there to help you along. There was also much information about the Taliban, which was something that I never really learned about, so the book taught me much about them. It gives the reader information about the struggle of a man trying “to be good again” and how the Taliban made his future change too. I recommend this book to everyone because it teaches a lesson of life and a bit of history as well.

Highly offensive to a religion which is practiced by a billion and half people the world over. The only thing I would like to ask the author is Which planet do you live in? Muslims don't all treat their women badly(implied here in the book- a fate worse than animals)women are abused everywhere both physically and mentally in western and non-western countries. The only Comment on this writer is--she's from the class of writers who bash Muslims to get fame and fortune. She gives examples of Somali women and their suffering etc,etc comes on they are from a war ravaged country and everyone knows the human rights violations that happen in these situations. Its not because of their religion that this Somali woman are oppressed. Simply she's as bad as Anders Behring Breivik, however, our fair lady has a pen and a heart of stone.
