I'm late to the party -- finally read The Kite Runner. It is a superb book through which I learned a lot about Afghan culture and modern Afghan history. The real appeal of the book, for me, was in the universal themes it addressed: friendship, betrayal, guilt, family, fathers and sons, and redemption. The characters of Amir and Hassan are unforgettable. It is a beautifully written book, destined to become a modern classic.
