About this product
Product Information
A deluxe collector's edition of the phenomenally bestselling "The Kite Runner," filled with striking and memorable photographs that bring Khaled Hosseini's compelling story to life. Since its publication in 2003, "The Kite Runner" has shipped over four million copies and spent more than two years on the "New York Times" bestseller list. Taking us from Afghanistan in the final days of the monarchy through the horrific rule of the Taliban, "The Kite Runner" is the heartbreaking story of the unlikely and inseparable friendship between a wealthy Afghan boy and the son of his father's servant, both of whom are caught in the tragic sweep of history. Published in the aftermath of America's invasion of Afghanistan, Khaled Hosseini's haunting writing brought a part of the world to vivid life that was previously unknown. Now this beautifully produced, collectible hardcover enhances Khaled Hosseini's story with unforgettable color and black-and-white photographs of the people of Afghanistan and their surroundings, further illustrating the world in which the story is set and heightening the already powerful experience of reading this incredible book.

"[A] powerful first novel... political events, even as dramatic as the ones that are presented in The Kite Runner , are only a part of this story. In The Kite Runner , Khaled Hosseini gives us a vivid and engaging story that reminds us how long his people have been struggling to triumph over the forces of violence--forces that continue to threaten them even today." --The New York Times Book Review "A beautiful novel... This unusually eloquent story is also about the fragile relationship between fathers and sons, humans and their gods, men and their countries. Loyalty and blood are the ties that bind their stories into one of the most lyrical, moving and unexpected books this year." -- The Denver Post "A marvelous first novel... the story of two young boys who are friends in Afghanistan, and an incredible story of the culture. It's an old-fashioned kind of novel that really sweeps you away." -- San Francisco Chronicle "This extraordinary novel locates the personal struggles of everyday people in the terrible sweep of history." -- People "A moving portrait of modern Afghanistan." --Entertainment Weekly "A powerful book...no frills, no nonsense, just hard, spare prose...an intimate account of family and friendship, betrayal and salvation that requires no atlas or translation to engage and enlighten us. Parts of The Kite Runner are raw and excruciating to read, yet the book in its entirety is lovingly written." --The Washington Post Book World "An astonishing, powerful book."--Diane Sawyer, "[A] powerful first novel... political events, even as dramatic as the ones that are presented in The Kite Runner , are only a part of this story.
