The Kite Runner
<b>The #1 <i>New York Times </i>bestselling debut novel that introduced Khaled Hosseini to millions of readers the world over.</b><br>  <br> The unforgettable, heartbreaking story of the unlikely friendship between a wealthy boy and the son of his father’s servant, caught in the tragic sweep of history, <i>The Kite Runner</i> transports readers to Afghanistan at a tense and crucial moment of change and destruction.
