Title: Thought-provoking...
Review: Amir and Hassan were close friends throughout childhood. Amir betrayed Hassan when he left him to be beaten by bullies. Even after emigrating to America and becoming a successful writer, Amir is haunted by this incident. When Amir hears that Hassan and his wife have been murdered during the Taliban takeover, he returns to his native Afghanistan to rescue Hassan's son. Amir arrives in Kabul and finds out that the boy has been enslaved by a Taliban official. Amir's quest to rescue Sohrab is full of dramatic plot twists and Amir learns much about himself and his family along the way.This is a novel that reads like a memoir. The characters are incredibly realistic and the details of life under the Taliban are chilling. I kept thinking about this book long after I turned the last page.
