Abstract:Khaled Hosseini, the Afghan American writer, displays a road of an Afghan boy to manhood with his simple and unadorned description in his first novel, The Kite Runner. In his works, Hosseini has attached great attention to love, betrayal and redemption among people. In The Kite Runner, the author conveys a profound description of a story that on the Afghan land overflown with splendid culture yet tortured by wars and poverty, after having suffered the family alienation, betrayal, coup, foreign invasion, and Taliban ruling, the protagonist Amir eventually chooses to confront the past, and sets out stepping on the path to redemption. Based on the trauma theory, the paper will discuss the trauma suffered by the individuals and post-trauma counseling in The Kite Runner.
