02. INFORMATIONS ABOUT THE NOVEL
It's a novel that was written by the Afghan-American writer Khaled Hosseini. It was
published in 2003 and quickly became a best-seller.
The author is Amir, a boy that will tell us all about the life he had and how he saw his best
friend being raped and stayed silent for a long time before meeting in bad circumstances
his son that got raped by the same person. We will see the conflicts that would poisoned his
mind and thoughts during the whole story but also how it's going to push him to evolute.
Khaled Hosseini, the Afghan-American author of the best selling novel " The Kite Runner "
says the story transcends Afghan values. "Guilt, friendship, forgiveness, loss, and desire for
atonement, and desire to be better than who you think you are. The novel tries to show us
how some values are important in life and how without them you can't go far in life without
practicing them.
The Kite Runner is set primarily in Afghanistan and the United States between the 1960s and
early 2000s. The setting of Afghanistan is particularly important to the arc of the novel,
because the violence and betrayal inflicted upon the country are reflections of the events
that happen to the main characters.
