There could be few but I am yet to hear about the movie which then become a book. It should be a tough job. Pictures speak louder than words and so once the picture is out, it is hard to make them into words. Words enjoy their supremacy when the image that they create doesn't exist or yet to be seen by the world, only the writer's mind sees it. The reverse too is chanllenging. Making a book into a successful movie is also not a easy job. The story is already known, scene by scene. The book writer enjoys creating the scene, the  environment, using words for few pages for every scene. But in the movie, it is almost always goes unmentioned, hardly a second to show the background of the scene. For example, A tea cup; a beautiful tea cup; a beautiful tea cup with hot tea; a beautiful white colour tea cup with red roses printed on them...; In the movie, you can see the teacup, no mention of it, it is upto to you to see the details. I watched the movie The Kite Runner   directe...

Usually, I buy and read book suggested by my friends but no one suggested me to read the book "The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini". I neither heard about it before I accidentally bought it. I was looking for the books I planned to buy in the Chennai Bookfair 2011 and I found this book . There was something attractive, though it was not as beautiful as of many of the books cover design, it should be the cover of it, because all I could see was only the book cover. I took it in my hand and asked myself, should I buy this?, yes was the answer and I bought it. I completed reading this book last week, after keeping it the shelf for almost 2 years. I am glad I got this book. It is one of best books I read in the recent years. The phrase " For you, a thousand times over " lingering in the mind is the proof that I really enjoyed reading this book and moved so much ;) " I became what I am today at the age of twelve, on a frigid overcast day in the winter of 1975 ...
