Today we are going to review another classic written by none other than Khaled Hosseini. It takes us to the life of the people living in Afghanistan and how they have to face the challenges during Taliban Rule. A movie was also made based on this novel. With more than 120 photos in full color and the complete screenplay, the story behind the making of the movie is based on the beloved bestselling novel directed by Marc Forster ( Monster's Ball, Finding Neverland, and Stranger Than Fiction ).
Based on one of the most acclaimed novels in recent memory, The Kite Runner is a profoundly emotional tale of friendship, family, devastating mistakes, and redeeming love. In a divided country on the verge of war, two childhood friends, Amir and Hassan, are about to be torn apart forever. One boy's fearful act of betrayal will mark their life forever and set in motion an epic quest for redemption. Now, after 20 years of living in America, Amir returns to a perilous Afghanistan under the Taliban's iron-fisted rule to face the secrets that still haunt him and take one last daring chance to set things right. This universal human story speaks to anyone who has ever yearned for a second chance to make a change and find forgiveness.
This beautifully designed pictorial book includes the complete screenplay, highlighted by exquisite color photographs, behind-the-scenes stories about the production, the locations (the western Chinese desert that borders Afghanistan), the casting of the globally diverse cast and crew, and commentaries by novelist Khaled Hosseini and director Marc Forster.
The character of Hassan will always stay in my heart. The innocence and the friendship between Ali and Hassan were portrayed beautifully. It is a good book. But not good than The Thousand Splendid Suns. That book was magical. I have reviewed that book also, kindly check that blog also. The story of that is even more interesting.
Thank You for staying up till here and going through my thoughts.
Bye And Take Care.
