Setting his stories inside the Afghan diaspora on both sides of the Atlantic, Kochai encourages us to ask: What is the meaning of home? Who are our family? What is holding us together and in grace, the way a string holds the kite runner to the kite? How do we sustain hope despite the infernal violence we inflict upon one another?
