The Kite Runner review

The Kite RunnerThe Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


The Kite Runner is an interesting and insightful look into Afghanistan before the various wars that have engulfed it. It is seen through the eyes of Amir, the protagonist. Numerous themes abound in this work: war, loyalty, racism, sacrifice, forgiveness and redemption. However it is really the last theme that will provoke differing opinions. Does the reader feel that the protagonist has achieved redemption by the end of the novel? Is this something that could in fact be achieved?
