Abstract
The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini is a book that reflects the author's experiences in Afghanistan. Afghan-American author Hosseini shows the various ways in which the war has impacted Afghanistan. The development of Afghan society has been greatly influenced by universal themes like family reunion, discrimination, regret, childhood, guilt, womanhood, betrayal, religion, and redemption. In both the pre- and post-Taliban eras, these themes have contributed to a decrease in crime in Afghanistan, but they have also psychologically scarred the population. Hosseini exposes the terrible state of Afghans in general, and women and children in particular, who have spent many years living in fear and isolation, in his work. They have been irrationally isolated by society and kept within the limits of their homes, which has prevented them from receiving an education and other fundamental rights. The protagonist is searching for constant peace among Afghan citizens as well as wealth, love, and loyalty. According to him, this quest is the only way to ensure a new future and that all Afghans have the same rights as other people around the world. Also, in a society filled by mistrust, confusion, doubt, and betrayal, this article discusses positive human relations. It investigates the traditions and practises of the Pashtun and Hazara ethnic communities using historical, factual, real, and fictional information. The study looks at how Khaled Hosseini's literary identity as a protagonist writer has used discrimination as a theme. This study provides an in-depth study of how Hosseini's novels reflect on the social and political circumstances of Afghanistan by using the historical perspective method.
