The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini - absolutely fantastic

The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
Khaled Hosseini is a very talented writer. Listening to the "Kite Runner" in my car during my daily commute made me wish my commute was longer. I would have prayed for more traffic congestion just to be able to listen to this book longer.

Starting from childhood in Kabul the author accurately describes the story setting from the Afghanistan that got subsequently embroiled in misery, infighting and despair.

don't worry if in the middle of the book you stop and wonder what happened to some of the characters from the initial chapters. They appear to haunt both you and Amir "Jan".

The book could have ended when the narrator and his dad settle in San Francisco after the hazing that life gives to all immigrants in the US. They reached the "promised land " didn't they. But there is more - Amir the now happily married successful writer cannot stay away from adventure.

Telling you anything more would be spoiling it for you. A very good read....

Florence of Arabia

One of the first films I remember is the "Lawrence of Arabia" in fact I have seen it 4 times since then. My excitement in reading "Florence of Arabia" turned into amusement. This is a funny book that makes fun of everyone and leaves you in stitches. The author does not spare anyone - US Goverment, The French, and the middle east scenario and creates cartoons from every serious situation.

The World Is Flat: A Brief History of the Twenty-first Century

Very unputdownable book. Describes the globalization of the business. It gave me a insight into the deep strategy that is making jobs spread across the world. The key message I got was that business will go where the cost to produce and service is cheaper. I definitely recommend reading.
