I do wonder how it would read if you didn't already know the story beforehand like I did. I did feel it felt a bit rushed but every important story beat was hit and I was able to fly through this graphic novel in one sitting. The graphic novel does a good job at condensing such a complex and heart-wrenching novel in to 132 pages. This story is a classic tale of childhood friendship, trauma and the consequences of guilt, shame and fear. But years later Amir is offered an opportunity for redemption and returns to Kabul during the reign of the Taliban to save Hassan's son. When Russian invades and Amir and his father are forced to flee Afganistan their worlds divide and go in opposite directions. These best friends experience a harrowing event that throw both of their worlds in to chaos. This retelling of Khalid Hosseini's The Kite Runner brings to life the childhood friends Amir and Hassan. ![]()
