Book Review: The Kite Runner
Marvellous, poigant, touching....words fail me when it comes to describing the book ( especially since it's less than a day since I read it ! ) But when I finished it at 3 AM last night, I was left with wonderment in my heart...I'm not just saying it to squeeze in fancy adjectives. That is of course a secondary objective, but my primary aim is to exhort you to pick up this masterpiece and I assure you you won't rest in peace until you turn the last page. The picture he paints of Afghanistan, the journey of a boy from riches to rags to riches again, the story of atonement of sins, of making up for a henious crime...enrapturing, captivating... this is my best read in a long time...
