A heart rendering tale of friendship, love, betrayal and guilt in 70's Afghanistan. Amir the son of respected man in 1970's Afghanistan and Hassan the lower caste son of his father's manservant. It tells of the relationship between the two boys and Amir's desparate desire to gain the love of his father. Events that will change their lives and a truth revealed and Amir's realisation of the truth and that he will never find redemption or master the fatal flaw of his character. A beautiful coming of age tale full of tenderness and love and loss that will bring a lump to your throat.   hide
