English: //The Kite Runner// Book Proposal Jack Kim 9F 1.Why are you interested in the work? 2. What do you already know about the work, and have you read anything like it before? 3. Include the title and author. Few years ago, when my brother Andrew came back from US, he brought a bunch of books that he read in that year. In those books, there were //The Kiter Runner// by Hosseini. By just looking at the cover of that book, it looked very boring; it had a picture of Tai-styled palaces. However, as soon as I put the book //The Kite Runner// in my highest bookshelf, where I usually put the books that already read, Andrew came in and said, “Dude you will regret what you did right now in the future”. To rephrase what he said a little bit, he meant “that book is awesome so read it”. I had no chance to read //The Kiter Runner// which I was very curious about the contents in the book, because of summer reading assignments and hagwons. What a coincidence to read a world literature book in school when I eagerly wanted to read one. The only thing that I know about //The Kite Runner//, is the fact that the book is a story about two men who were once a friend during their childhood. Also I know that one of the friends betrayed one another somehow and ran away. However, after few years, when the one who betrayed his friend found out that his friend was killed, he came back to his hometown to help his friend’s son from a life of slavery. This book reminded me of a movie which is also a story about friends and betrayals.
