You are a guy interested about culture? Or it doesn’t is
what you like to talk about…? The book of the kite runner is calling you, made
by the greatest, Khaled Hosseini.
The kite runner is the history of two afghan friends that
love a native sport called Kite Running but the are some differences between
them that are going to make their lives harder as it was supposed to be.
The story is about Amir, the main character, and Hassan both
of them are part of different ethnic groups, near the year 1976. The first one,
Amir, is a Pashtun; Pashtuns are the high ethnic group in Afghanistan, while
the low ethnic groups are the Hazaras, like Hassan. But the fact that both of them are good
friends but are from different groups is going to call the attention of some people
around there.
There is another thing that is important in the history, the
family of Amir, the main character. There is just Amir and his father, Baba,
the mother died while she was giving birth to Amir, something that Baba is not
happy about. Maybe they are a family, but the hate from baba to his son is real,
he says that is his fault the death of his wife. Now Amir is going to fix their
relation with the help of Hassan, and try to gain his honor, how? Winning the
kite runner competition, a battle were the last kite flying wins. He is going
to make it?
I am not going to talk about that, the true is that is a
history that leaves a lot of things to think about, a great book with a
interesting message behind.
