Andrea Bagoje andread5a0 — April 6, 2009 By Darlene L. Sanford BOOK REVIEW The Kite Runner written by the Khaled Hosseini is a fictional novel about the growth in an Afghani man who struggles to accept the choices of his childhood. This world literature story was composed to address the societal conflicts the main character was subjected to. The author’s work focused on the relationships between father and son, child and servant, and man with the world. Oh Afghanistan descent, Hosseini addressed the issues his people had to embrace with the Russian tyranny. Although Hosseini incorporated this political struggle between races, the story line begins with the dynamic main character Amir. He lives in Kabul, Afghanistan in an extravagant mansion with his father and their two servants. Hassan is Amir’s servant but more of a brother and dear friend. All through their childhood Hassan defended Amir and did for him. Little did they know the kite tournament would break their bond forever. Amir’s cowardice was fought for by Hassan by protecting their prize from the neighborhood bullies. In that moment, Amir would grow to hate himself for not once fighting for the friendship he shared with Hassan. Amir’s relationship with his father, Baba, was not steady either. Baba was the diplomatic, outspoken Pashtun Afghani. He held his tongue for no one considering his view on politics. His interest in his son Amir was rocky on accounts that Amir would write stories instead of learn to fight. Baba tended to favor his servant’s son Hassan more for some reason. The father-son bond was not fully existent but in a way, they were trying. Not only had an incident drive them apart, Russian government and the Taliban was taking over Kabul. Baba and Amir had to flee to America where all would change. Baba worked at a gas station to fund Amir through school. Though Amir was not becoming a lawyer like his father had wished, their relationship was turning for the best. Baba was listening to his stories and spending time with his son. When Amir and Baba were getting along, Amir was still haunted by his childhood actions. One day he received a phone call from the family friend Rahim Khan. This was Amir’s chance of redemption on the line. Hesitant of course, he complied with Khan’s wishes and fled home to Afghanistan. There he would then see the home he once shared deteriorate before his eyes. He was surprised to see the poverty and desperation in Kabul but he had a mission to fulfill and complete for Hassan’s sake. Amir would have to face his childhood adversary and triumph. The voyage would be difficult and eye-opening but Amir would finally mature from returning “home”. The Kite Runner was a captivating tale of adventure, self-forgiveness, and Afghani culture. Hosseini did an excellent job keeping the setting, language, and character development accurate to that of Afghani culture. In the setting, the novel described the bazaar and the attire of characters. He incorporated the Farsi names as far as language was concerned. With development of each character he used decent actions like how Baba treated Amir. This world literature piece was epic and culturally correct. While reading this novel, I lost interest only because this was a new genre to me. I had never read something with a Middle Eastern story line. I grew to understand Hosseini’s work by applying it to my life experiences. I have had friends that failed to defend my honor. Hosseini reached his point that man has a mind of his own. He does not have to conform to society’s standards. Amir learned that his friendship with Hassan was purposeful and well-needed. They needed each other. After reading this novel I grew and understanding that themes like: “forgive and forget” and “love yourself” are international. I enjoyed the fact that I felt confident afterwards and ready to close old chapters of self-guilt. Amir may have seemed cowardly in not fighting for Hassan but he redeemed himself in the end. There was always time for improvement and atonement. Hosseini proved that a parent-child relationship molds the adult that the child becomes. Khaled Hosseini’s debut novel The Kite Runner gives an appealing and dramatic story that the reader can truly learn and adapt from. The book will withstand the test of time as long as society judges man. I felt motivated to overcome the forces that were constricting me from victory. The Kite Runner is for all ages, genders, and races to learn how to move on from mistakes. I would recommend The Kite Runner because it was educational and cultural. It revealed Afghani realties. Hosseini addressed in fiction an experience that immigrants could relate to and Americans could learn.
