The Kite Runner, by Khalid Hosseini. They recently published a tenth anniversary edition of this novel, which became an instant classic when it was published in 2003. Powerful, engaging, sad, yet also a page-turner, it tells the story of a friendship between a wealthy Afghan boy and the son of a family servant, set against the ominous backdrop of 1970s Afghanistan.
