À propos de ce contenu audio

Taking us from Afghanistan in the final days of its monarchy to the present, The Kite Runner is the unforgettable and beautifully told story of the friendship between two boys growing up in Kabul. Raised in the same household and sharing the same wet nurse, Amir and Hassan grow up in different worlds: Amir is the son of a prominent and wealthy man, while Hassan, the son of Amir's father's servant, is a Hazara - a shunned ethnic minority. Their intertwined lives, and their fates, reflect the eventual tragedy of the world around them. When Amir and his father flee the country for a new life in California, Amir thinks that he has escaped his past. And yet he cannot leave the memory of Hassan behind him.

The Kite Runner is a novel about friendship and betrayal, and about the price of loyalty. It is about the bonds between fathers and sons, and the power of fathers over sons - their love, their sacrifices, and their lies. Written against a backdrop of history that has not been told in fiction before, The Kite Runner describes the rich culture and beauty of a land in the process of being destroyed. But through the devastation, Khaled Hosseini offers hope for redemption.

    A magical blend of history, kites, betrayl and redemption... The Kite runner is a book like no other. Definitely one of my all time favorites.The author's voice only renders it even more touching and real. Get ready to drift away!

    This is the second book of Khaled Hosseini that I read. The second time he impresses me with his writing, his story telling, his way of making us feel the emotions of the characters... his stories really leave a mark.

    Impressive

    Deeply moving novel made all the more emotional from the fact that it is read by the author himself. The accent, the authentic pronunciation of names and places… the tone. An absolute must read/listen!

    All time Favourite

    Afghanistan evokes images of war, social inequality, veiled women and religious intolerance. Hosseini's writing is not particularly evocative and there are parts of the narrative that are somewhat forced and uninspired in their predictability, with very stereotyped characters.

    This book fell short of expectations. Its strength lies in its themes and in making us aware of various episodes of Afghan history and customs (everyday life during the Soviet and Taliban occupations, the abominable custom of bacha bazi (still practiced, despite the penal framework!), folklore, etc.) .

    "A thousand splendid suns" remains my favorite of the author's body of work.
