The Kite Runner Khaled Hosseini  “The Kite Runner was said to be the first novel written in English by an Afghan writer…The Kite Runner is the story of strained family relationships between a father and a son, and between two brothers, how they deal with guilt and forgiveness, and how they weather the political and social transformations of Afghanistan from the 1970s to 2001…The Kite Runner, a coming-of-age novel, deals with the themes of identity, loyalty, courage, and deception. As the protagonist Amir grows to adulthood, he must come to terms with his past wrongs and adjust to a new culture after leaving Afghanistan for the United States.” (from enotes.com)  Caution: language, violence, sexual content

One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest Ken Kesey  This novel is a story of a mental ward and its inhabitants, especially between the tyrannical Big Nurse Ratched and Randle Patrick McMurphy, a fun-loving new inmate who decides to oppose her. We see the struggle through the eyes of Chief Bromden, a patient who witnesses McMurphy’s heroic attempt to do battle with the powers that keep them all imprisoned.  Caution: language, violence, sexual content
