Flying High

You know what's great about The Kite Runner? It's not too snooty for popular culture and it's not too popular culture for intellectuals. This book has won a wide range of awards, from a place on the 2004 ALA list of notable books to Entertainment Weekly's Best Book award. Not too shabby. (Ask your students what they think: is this pop lit or the stuff of the academic elite?)
