追风筝的人经典语句（英文版）
——《追风筝的人》经典语句
——现在你满意了吗？他凄然说，你觉得好受一些了吗？我从不曾觉得高兴，从不曾
觉得好受一些，根本就没有过。
—— 我叹气，颓然坐倒在椅子上。一道阳光照在床上，在我们两人中间，而就在
那一瞬间，那张死灰的脸从光线那边看着我，它像极了哈桑的面孔，不是那个整
天跟我玩弹珠直到毛拉唱起晚祷、阿里喊我们回家的哈桑，不是那个太阳没入西
边的黏土屋顶时我们从山丘上追逐而下的哈桑，而是我有生最后一次见到的那个
哈桑，那个我透过自己房间雨水迷蒙的窗户望着的、在夏日温暖的倾盆大雨中拖
着行李走在阿里背后、将它们塞进爸爸的轿车后厢的哈桑。
—— 我看着那张照片。你爸爸是被拉扯成两半的男人。拉辛汗在信里这么说。我
是有名分的那一半，社会承认的、合法的一半，不知不觉间充当了父亲疚恨的化
身。我看着哈桑，阳光打在他露出缺了两个门牙的笑脸上。爸爸的另一半，没有
名分、没有特权的一半，那继承了爸爸身上纯洁高贵品质的一半，也许，在爸爸
内心某处秘密的地方，这是他当成自己的真正儿子的一半。
——在阿富汗，结局才是最重要的。每逢哈桑和我在索拉博电影院看完印度片回
家，阿里、拉辛汗、爸爸或者爸爸那些九流三教的朋友——各种远房亲戚在那座
房子进进出出——想知道的只有这些：电影里面那个姑娘找到幸福了吗？电影里
面那个家伙胜利地实现了他的梦想吗？还是失败了，郁郁而终？
他们想知道的是结局是不是幸福。
如果今天有人问起哈桑、索拉博和我的故事结局是否圆满，我不知道该怎么
说。
有人能回答吗？
毕竟，生活并非印度电影。阿富汗人总喜欢说：生活总会继续。他们不关心
开始或结束、成功或失败、危在旦夕或柳暗花明，只顾像游牧部落那样风尘仆仆
地缓慢前进。
——我追。一个成年人在一群尖叫的孩子中奔跑。但我不在乎。我追，风拂过我的脸庞，我唇上挂着一个像潘杰希尔峡谷那样大大的微笑。
我追。

英文简介:
This is a wonderful, beautiful epic of a novel. Set in Afghanistan and the United States between the 1970s to the present day, it is a heartbreaking tale of a young boy, Amir, and his best friend who are torn apart. This is a classic word-of-mouth novel and is sure to become as universally loved as The God of Small Things and The Glass Palace.
Twelve year old Amir is desperate to win the approval of his father Baba, one of the richest and most respected merchants in Kabul. He has failed to do so through academia or brawn, but the one area where they connect is the annual kite fighting tournament. Amir is determined not just to win the competition but to run the last kite and bring it home triumphantly, to prove to his father that he has the makings of a man. His loyal friend Hassan is the best kite runner that Amir has ever seen, and he promises to help him - for Hassan always helps Amir out of trouble. But Hassan is a Shi'a Muslim and this is 1970s Afghanistan. Hassan is taunted and jeered at by Amir's school friends; he is merely a servant living in a shack at the back of Amir's house. So why does Amir feel such envy towards his friend? Then, what happens to Hassan on the afternoon of the tournament is to shatter all their lives, and define their futures.
The Kite Runner of Khaled Hosseini's deeply moving fiction debut is an illiterate Afghan boy with an uncanny instinct for predicting exactly where a downed kite will land. Growing up in the city of Kabul in the early 1970s, Hassan was narrator Amir's closest friend even though the loyal 11-year-old with "a face like a Chinese doll" was the son of Amir's father's servant and a member of Afghanistan's despised Hazara minority. But in 1975, on the day of Kabul's annual kite-fighting tournament, something unspeakable happened between the two boys.
Narrated by Amir, a 40-year-old novelist living in California, The Kite Runner tells the gripping story of a boyhood friendship destroyed by jealousy, fear, and the kind of ruthless evil that transcends mere politics. Running parallel to this personal narrative of loss and redemption is the story of modern Afghanistan and of Amir's equally guilt-ridden relationship with the war-torn city of his birth. The first Afghan novel to be written in English, The Kite Runner begins in the final days of King Zahir Shah's 40-year reign and traces the country's fall from a secluded oasis to a tank-strewn battlefield controlled by the Russians and then the trigger-happy Taliban. When Amir returns to Kabul to rescue Hassan's orphaned child, the personal and the political get tangled together in a plot that is as suspenseful as it is taut with feeling.
The son of an Afghan diplomat whose family received political asylum in the United States in 1980, Hosseini combines the unflinching realism of a war correspondent with the satisfying emotional pull of master storytellers such as Rohinton Mistry. Like the kite that is its central image, the story line of this mesmerizing first novel occasionally dips and seems almost to dive to the ground. But Hosseini ultimately keeps everything airborne until his heartrending conclusion in an American picnic park.
