The #1 New York Times bestselling novel beloved by millions of
readers the world over.
"A vivid and engaging story that reminds us how long his people [of
Afghanistan] have been struggling to triumph over the forces of
violence--forces that continue to threaten them even today." -New York
Times Book Review
The unforgettable, heartbreaking story of the unlikely friendship
between a wealthy boy and the son of his father's servant, caught in the
tragic sweep of history, The Kite Runner transports readers to
Afghanistan at a tense and crucial moment of change and destruction. A
powerful story of friendship, it is also about the power of reading, the
price of betrayal, and the possibility of redemption; and an exploration
of the power of fathers over sons--their love, their sacrifices, their
lies.
Since its publication in 2003 Kite Runner has become a beloved,
one-of-a-kind classic of contemporary literature, touching millions of
readers, and launching the career of one of America's most treasured
writers.
