Book 1: The Kite Runner
One frosty day in the winter of 1975, an Afghan boy named Amir witnesses a horrific act. This event changes his own life and the fate of his close friend Hassan forever. But it's not just what he saw, it's also the fact that Amir didn't intervene, didn't do anything, and stood by. Cowardice, even apostasy, will haunt him throughout his life, first in Afghanistan, then in America, until Amir gains the courage to challenge all his inner demons and finds "a way to be good again."
The Kite Runner is the debut novel by Afghan-American author Khaled Gosseini, which was published in 2003 and subsequently topped The New York Times bestseller list for two years in a row, and was made into a film of the same name in 2007.
