    The boys applied glue on a snare trap and when the birds landed on it, they became stuck. Father and the boys then constructed a dove-case which would serve as the pigeons’ new habitat. They applied the spice, anise, inside the cage. The birds became so used to the aroma of the spice that they always returned to their cage because they thought of it as their home. “The plant of anise that Jack brought will do the business,” Fritz admitted. Father jokingly told the boys he had the magic to bring the birds back to the cage, who for a while had them believing this…

    Khaled Hosseini was born in Kabul, Afghanistan, on March 4, 1965, and was the oldest of five children. Just as he describes in The Kite Runner, Kabul was a cosmopolitan city at the time. Western culture, including movies and literature, mixed with Afghan traditions, such as kite fighting in the winter. Lavish parties were normal at the Hosseini family’s home in the upper-middle class neighbourhood of Wazir Akbar Khan. Hosseini’s father served as a diplomat with the Afghan Foreign Ministry, and his mother taught Farsi and history at a local high school for girls. Then, in 1970, the Foreign Ministry sent his father to Iran. While the family only spent a few years there, Hosseini taught a Hazara man, who worked as a cook for the family, how to read and write. By this time, Khaled Hosseini was already reading Persian poetry as well as American novels, and he began writing his own short stories.…
