Review:The Kite Runner

'For you, a thousand times over'
It is a gripping story about betrayal to guilt to redemption. The book is about two Afghan boys named Amir, a Sunni muslim from a wealthy family and Hassan, a Shi'a Muslim from a poor family.In Afghanistan, the Sunni Muslims were called Pastun, a socially superior group than the Hazaras, the Shi'a Muslims.
The two young boys lived in Kabul and they will participate in the Kite-running competition, their favourite past time.  But later that year, a war approaches. Amir betrays his his best friend, Hassan. This thought haunts him later in his life.
Amir and his father leave Afghanistan. They move to America.
He is later granted redemption(but not completely) in the last chapter. But still, Afghanistan is not as it used to be before . Amir still hopes for the well being of the war-torn Afghanistan.
It is a truly painful story.
