Book Summary

2 comments:

  1. In the land that is ruled by man
    We tell the story of Amir and Hassan
    Two boys together
    One a slave, both brothers to each other
    A story of betrayal
    And of social class portrayal
    Amir's goal is to atone for his sins
    And saving Hassan's child is the way he wins
    But many obstacles stand in his way
    Aseef, Taliban and an endless Afghanistan fray
    Succeed he does through hardship and trial
    A victory that was worthwhile
    To begin and end in peace
    Kite running together with the son of his brother
    Amir wishes he were no other

  2. Arabic Literature = Saj'

    The story begins with a slave and an owner
    Both kind to each other
    They laugh, play, and learn like no other
    But one day this relationship is broken
    In one night, with no words spoken
    Their social classes drive the separation
    Out of proportion, beyond imagination
    Being filled with guilt
    And a tree beginning to wilt
    The owner must save his "friend's" child
    Even though the obstacles are not worth his while
    The war, fights, and terrorists compile
    But he must do it, and journey to an isolated isle
    Or go back to kite running
    And journey to the land, without any shunning
