The kite runner.

The kite runner....by Khaled Hosseini.As,a true lover of gulf stories(i still don't know why??),I always wanted this particular book on my shelf.Though I didn't get the opportunity to read it,I ended up watching its movie.And WoW,what a masterpiece it was.Marc Foster the director,has done an awesome job,I always preferred reading book before watching its movie,but my experiment to watch this flick first was not a waste.
Now coming to the movie,the story unfolds about friendship.loyalty,fear and relationships.Friendship between master and servant.loyalty between servant and master,fear of facing the truth and relation between parent and child.The story revolves around the very much happy Afghanistan,its culture and tradition,before the Russians entered into the picture.How people had to fled away from their very own country.And then journey of bleeding Afghanistan had no end from Russians to now Talibans.
I would really like everyone to watch this movie,and enjoy it to the fullest.

I liked this book but my husband wasn't as impressed with it as I was. I bet the movie would be good. I didn't know it was a movie!
