The impact of war on families from "summary" of The Kite Runner (new) by Khaled Hosseini
War has a way of tearing families apart, leaving behind a trail of pain and suffering that can last for generations. In 'The Kite Runner', we see how the characters are deeply affected by the conflicts that ravage their homeland of Afghanistan. The protagonist, Amir, is forced to flee with his father to America, leaving behind their home and everything they hold dear. This separation takes a toll on their relationship, as they struggle to adapt to their new life in a foreign land. The impact of war is not limited to physical distance, as we see with Hassan and his son, Sohrab. Hassan is killed during the fighting, leaving Sohrab orphaned and alone in a war-torn country. This loss reverberates through the generations, as Sohrab is left to navigate a world filled with violence and uncertainty. His experiences shape him in profound ways, shaping his identity and his relationships with others. The effects of war are not just felt by those directly involved in the conflict, but also by their families and loved ones. Rahim ...
