The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini

Although this book goes a little over the top at the end, it's a very interesting portrayal of a country we've read so much about in the news recently, Afghanistan. In addition to being an interesting window into another culture, the book also brings up interesting universal questions about class, family, loyalty and courage.

Optional non-fiction book, if you have the time: West of Kabul, East of New York: An Afghan American Story, by Tamim Ansary.
