Kite runner

Kite runner circulates around the life of Amir a young boy from Kabul. Its about his relationships with the people he comes across throughout his life and how they are affected when interrupted by other entities. Non existing relationship with his mother, fragility of it with his father and the constant struggle to seek his approval which affects his relation with Hassan later. Brotherhood that he shares with Hassan, and Rahim Khan the constant pillar in his life and Assef the bully. These all are interconnected. when dynamics of one changes it affects all. His fear for Assef stops him from intervening the assault. Every time he sees Hassan he is reminded of his cowardice which leads him to break of his relation with him. He runs every time he sees flaw instead of addressing it and ends up exhausting his body. To heal old wounds, to salvage what is left of his old relations he returns back home dedicates his book to Rahim Khan and avenges his brother's death by rescuing his son Sohrab from Assef's clutches. When something is included or excluded from his life it changes the design of his life for good or for bad depending on the nature of his actions that follow up.
