[x] Sorry, we couldn't find that author blog.

Dear Readers:Thank you for letters of support and encouragement. As ever, I cherish and appreciate them immensely.Well it appears that The Khaled Hosseini Foundation is up and running. We had our first public event to raise funds for the foundation on April 25th. My good friends Michael and Carolyn Bealmear, whom I have known through Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) fundraising, arranged a fundraising evening for us at the Lafayette Orinda Presbyterian Church. Roughly 600 people

omid Only one sin

Written by: a.k.a. omid

In my opinion, in our life cycle, we have just one sin. It’s robbery.

Every other sin is a variation of robbery.

When you kill a person, you rob a life.

When you tell a lie to somebody, you rob somebody’s right to the truth.

When you strike somebody, you rob somebody’s right to the safety.

When you don’t work very well, you rob productivity.

And we can use more examples about the sin of robbery

Based upon the book by: khaled hosseini

Sanghmitra Chauhan dear sir,
i am from India,I am 25yr Old woman,i have read around 200 books bt none of them stirred my soul like the kite runner did. i have read thousand splendid suns also bt it lacked the reality and truthfullness of the kite runner.it does not only make a person cry but mourn over the death of such a grand and eternal empire whose history bought a mythological change in my country and gave Indian soil a ruler like Akbar.it is jst not a book bt the biography of every Afghan.the book must have bought toorrent of tears frm every readers eye.i m sorry for posting comment so late as i m not at all web savvy and believe more in writing than typing.

Marissa Devout I love the kite-runner. This is an insignificant comment but i just want to say, I LOVE THE KITE-RUNNER. Go Afghanistan, Go Somalia and many other places in the world, me i'm a illiterate at the world past. Your story shared your country, you shared your country to the WORLD. I'm amazed, you make me WANT to be a writer. I love Hassan, and Amir is kind of like me. A coward. But your book shares humility, being noble and patient somehow, and I felt so much closer to my God. So thank you. and go help the world, i support you too :)

Thanks sir, for depicting such a story, i felt being with marium and liala in all theirs ups and downs. Noe i'm dieing to collect the kite-runner.
