The Kite Runner

I had finished off the kite runner a few weeks back and to be honest i was impressed with the book.The plot may not be a great one , in fact it was pretty ordinary but the way it was written made an ordinary book into an extraordinary one.One can correlate with the writer and feel the pain,trauma,helplessness and happiness of all the characters in the book.So i wasn't surprised when i heard people singing paeans about it.The barbaric nature of the Taliban and the hypocrisy present in the Afghan society has been described very vividly..Even though the dialogue "for you a thousands time over" was repeated in the book but it never seemed to be cliched.infact it was used pretty beautifully.The ending was open ended and it gave enough food for thought.It also justified the Title."Tashkor " khalid agha for writing such a wonderful book.
