“It may be unfair, but what happens in a few days, sometimes even a single day, can change the course of a whole lifetime."
Amir is the son of a wealthy Kabul merchant, a member of the ruling caste of Pashtuns. Hassan, his servant and constant companion, is a Hazara, a despised and impoverished caste. Their uncommon bond is torn by Amir's choice to abandon his friend amidst the increasing ethnic, religious, and political tensions of the dying years of the Afghan monarchy, wrenching them far apart. But so strong is the bond between the two boys that Amir journeys back to a distant world, to try to right past wrongs against the only true friend he ever had.
The unforgettable, heartbreaking story of the unlikely friendship between a wealthy boy and the son of his father’s servant, The Kite Runner is a beautifully crafted novel set in a country that is in the process of being destroyed. It is about the power of reading, the price of betrayal, and the possibility of redemption; and an exploration of the power of fathers over sons—their love, their sacrifices, their lies.
A sweeping story of family, love, and friendship told against the devastating backdrop of the history of Afghanistan over the last thirty years, The Kite Runner is an unusual and powerful novel that has become a beloved, one-of-a-kind classic.
Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan, and moved to the United States in 1980. His first novel, The Kite Runner, was an international bestseller, published in thirty-eight countries. In 2006 he was named a goodwill envoy to UNHCR, the United Nations Refugee Agency. He lives in northern California.
我时常幻想自己是来自未来的,这样,有一天我面对未来某一时刻的突然变化,就会更从容,面对陈年往事也会更慷慨。但,我更适合平庸,如寻常人一样琐碎繁杂的生活,对时间的细枝末节斤斤计较。 既然无法预知未来,那么人更多的开始依赖回忆,甚至靠那些零星琐碎的回忆支撑往后...
评分大凡是有深刻情感经历的人,对这句话都会有一定的敏感度。因为这句话里蕴涵着说者对听者饱满而充溢得几乎止不住外泄的深情。当我们一字一顿地默念这七个字时,“为、你、千、千、万、万、遍”,便仿佛身边所有的喧哗和嘈杂都在瞬间飞弛而去,它们乘上呼啸的列车,在生命的布景...

评分洞穿我的渺小 ——《追风筝的人》 加盐 总觉得很多时候,我们爱上一个人,喜欢一本书,钟情一首歌曲,流连一座城市,都是因为当中有我们自己的故事,投入了感情,所以感动。 我对一部好作品的定义其实很简单,能够让我落泪,能够扣动我铁...
最近唯一一本让我比较有往下读冲动的英语读物。
评分跟着音频看完的,看完中文多年后,再看英文依然嚎啕大哭……
评分十年之后再读/听一遍,更加感叹。故事讲的不仅仅是赎罪,更多的还有对人性的认识。一个小男孩的成长。
评分今年第二本原著,读的我超压抑。但故事很动人心。
