The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini (Author) “’The Kite Runner is a first novel of unusual generosity, honesty and compassion’” – Independent“’Shattering … a rich and soul-searching narrative … a sharp, unforgettable taste of the trauma and tumult experienced by Afghanis as their country buckled’” – Observer“’A devastating, masterful and painfully honest story … it is a novel of great hidden intricacy and wisdom, like a timeless Eastern tale. It speaks the most harrowing truth about the power of evil’” – Daily Telegraph“’Unforgettable … extraordinary. It is so powerful that for a long time after everything I read seemed bland’” – Isabel AllendeReview “[A] powerful first novel… political events, even as dramatic as the ones that are presented in The Kite Runner, are only a part of this story. In The Kite Runner, Khaled Hosseini gives us a vivid and engaging story that reminds us how long his people have been struggling to triumph over the forces of violence—forces that continue to threaten them even today.”—The New York Times Book Review“A beautiful novel… This unusually eloquent story is also about the fragile relationship between fathers and sons, humans and their gods, men and their countries. Loyalty and blood are the ties that bind their stories into one of the most lyrical, moving and unexpected books this year.” –The Denver Post“A marvelous first novel… the story of two young boys who are friends in Afghanistan, and an incredible story of the culture. It’s an old-fashioned kind of novel that really sweeps you away.” –San Francisco Chronicle“This extraordinary novel locates the personal struggles of everyday people in the terrible sweep of history.” –People“A moving portrait of modern Afghanistan.” —Entertainment Weekly“A powerful book…no frills, no nonsense, just hard, spare prose…an intimate account of family and friendship, betrayal and salvation that requires no atlas or translation to engage and enlighten us. Parts of The Kite Runner are raw and excruciating to read, yet the book in its entirety is lovingly written.”—The Washington Post Book World“An astonishing, powerful book.”—Diane SawyerAbout the Author Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan, and moved to the United States in 1980.
