Liz's review

Twelve-year-old childe Amir and his servant Hassan were very good friends. However, in a traditional event of running kites race, a very dire thing happened to Hassan. Amir felt extremely self-condemned and painful about himself, so he drove Hassan away from his home by an artifice. Later he escape from hometown to America with his father because the war. But during the life abroad, Amir could forgive himself for betraying Hassan all the time. He got a chance to atone his mistake after twenty years and he came back to his mother land, hoping to try his best to give a hand to his best friend. However, he turned out to find a shocking lie of his life. The nightmare was replayed. What will Amir chose to do?
The Kite Runner is a beautiful story with brutal realism. Hosseini showed us the nature and atonement of personality by his exquisite brushwork. This booking will shake your heart whiling reading. It is a story about life in transmigration, overlapping the beginning and the end of the story: the broad sky, the flying kite and the kids running the kites, cheering. The story honors the past days of the most precious time. This is the sparkling point of the book. The author also shaped an individual who grew up in struggle. Amir is a model of loneliness and brave heart. He was low, but he was a hero by being strong in heart and over come all the tough stuffs with faith. Although the story was brutal, this is a book that you can’t ignore.
