"For you, a thousand times over"
I have read this line again and again , everytime i read it , sad emotions start emerging inside me.
'The kite runner' is a book about two boys called Hassan and Amir.Hassan is a Hazara (a minority low caste in Afghanistan) and Amir is a Pashtun(a high caste in Afghanistan).Despite of these differences, hassan and amir bond pretty well, they have grown up together.
Their lives completely change after the kite flying competition which Amir definitely have to win in order to make his father proud and takes the help of Hassan.What hapoens that day , changes the life of these two boys completely.
What i love this book is it has the power to make the hardest of the hard hearts cry.One can feel various aspects of life like 'What is the meaning of a real friendship' , 'how it feels to be socially discriminated' , 'sacrifice' , 'Redemption' and many many more....
Apart from that, Hosseini never fails to give political insight of Afghanistan through his books.
I remember i was sad for weeks after reading this masterpiece and it's all worth it, reading this has been a emotional roller coaster for me and it's surely amoung the books one should read before he/she dies :')
MY RATING -5/5
