Brief review: The book is about the story of Amir, son of a wealthy Kabul merchant who lives in guilt for most of his life due to some incident that happened early in life and how he redeems himself decades later. Though the story has a backdrop of violence and heart breaking events, it will still make you read till the end. Khaled Hosseini knows how to connect with readers. It's a story of pain, cowardice, cruelty, hope and redemption.
