Бегущий за ветром. Begushchij za vetrom

Ошеломляющий дебютный роман, который уже называют главным романом нового века, а его автора - живым классиком. "Бегущий за ветром" - проникновенная, пробирающая до самого нутра история о дружбе и верности, о предательстве и искуплении. Нежный, тонкий, ироничный и по-хорошему сентиментальный, роман Халеда Хоссейни напоминает живописное полотно, которое можно разглядывать бесконечно. Амира и Хасана разделяла пропасть. Один принадлежал к местной аристократии, другой - к презираемому меньшинству. У одного отец был красив и важен, у другого - хром и жалок. Один был запойным читателем, другой - неграмотным. Заячью губу Хасана видели все, уродливые же шрамы Амира были скрыты глубоко внутри. Но не найти людей ближе, чем эти два мальчика. Их история разворачивается на фоне кабульской идиллии, которая вскоре сменится грозными бурями. Мальчики - словно два бумажных змея, которые подхватила эта буря и разметала в разные стороны. У каждого своя судьба, своя трагедия, но они, как и в детстве, связаны прочнейшими узами. Роман стал одним из самых ярких явлений в мировой литературе последних лет. В названии своей книги писатель вспоминает традиционную забаву афганских мальчишек - сражения бумажных змеев. Победить соперников и остаться в одиночестве парить в бездонном синем небе - настоящее детское счастье. Ты бежишь за змеем и ветром, как бежишь за своей судьбой, пытаясь поймать ее. Но поймает она тебя.

Sulla strada che dal piccolo villaggio di Shadbagh porta a Kabul, viaggiano un padre e due bambini. Sono a piedi e il loro unico mezzo di trasporto è un carretto rosso, su cui Sabur, il padre, ha caricato la figlia di tre anni, Pari. Sabur ha cercato in molti modi di rimandare a casa il figlio, Abdullah, senza riuscirci. Il legame tra i due fratelli è troppo forte perché il ragazzino si lasci scoraggiare. Ha deciso che li accompagnerà a Kabul e niente potrà fargli cambiare idea, anche perché c'è qualcosa che lo turba in quel viaggio, qualcosa di non detto e di vagamente minaccioso di cui non sa darsi ragione. Ciò che avviene al loro arrivo è una lacerazione che segnerà le loro vite per sempre. Attraverso generazioni e continenti, in un percorso che ci porta da Kabul a Parigi, da San Francisco all'isola greca di Tinos, Khaled Hosseini esplora con grande profondità i molti modi in cui le persone amano, si feriscono, si tradiscono e si sacrificano l'una per l'altra.

To Abdullah, Pari, as beautiful and sweet-natured as the fairy for which she was named, is everything. More like a parent than a brother, Abdullah will do anything for her, even trading his only pair of shoes for a feather for her treasured collection. Each night they sleep together in their cot, their skulls touching, their limbs tangled. One day the siblings journey across the desert to Kabul with their father. Pari and Abdullah have no sense of the fate that awaits them there, for the event which unfolds will tear their lives apart; sometimes a finger must be cut to save the hand. Crossing generations and continents, moving from Kabul, to Paris, to San Francisco, to the Greek island of Tinos, Khaled Hosseini writes about the bonds that define us and shape our lives, and how the choices we make resonate through history.
