Hüseyni'nin öyküsü bir yandan birinci şahıs anlatıcının geçmişteki bir deneyiminin yetişkin zihnindeki son derece yıkıcı etkisini hafifletmeyi veya en azından kontrol etmeyi, ne kadar istediğini gösterirken öte yandan bu tarz bir hatırlama ve yeniden yapılanma sürecinde anlatıcının, anlatım sonunda aldığı kefaretten ne kadar memnun olduğuna işaret eder. Öz: Afgan asıllı Amerikalı yazar Halit Hüseyni (Khaled Hosseini) Uçurtma Avcısı (The Kite Runner) adlı romanında öykü anlatımını en az iki amaç için kullanmaktadır. By focusing on his personal and human-like experiences, the protagonist Amir's storytelling not only functions as a significant tool to alleviate his intense suffering, but also facilitates the readers' emotional engagement in Hosseini's storyworld. Cognitive narratologists, such as Monika Fludernik and David Herman, consider representation of experience an important basic element of narrativity or the qualities that make a narrative accepted as narrative. Storytelling helps Hosseini's narrator to reconfigure his unfavourable experiences, which act both as the central concern of the narrative plot and as a shared quality weaving the central characters together. In his The Kite Runner (2003), Khaled Hosseini uses storytelling for at least two purposes: to show how the first-person narrator yearns to alleviate or at least control the profoundly destructive impact of a single past experience on his adult mind and to show how, through such a recollection and reconstruction process, the narrator feels satisfied with his atonement by the end of his narration. In my discussion of ethnic hierarchy and conflicts in Afghanistan described in the novel, Jacques Derrida's and Giorgio Agamben's theoretical concepts, such as the problematic of sovereignty, sovereign animality and bare life in The Beast & the Soveriegn and Homo Sacer, will be used to penetrate the deeper understanding of their traumatic past as haunting specters. This ethical return to the past not only has unfolded certain secrecy of his father's dishonor but also has healed his sense of survivor's guilt because of his evil rivalry of jealousy against Hassan to fully possess his father's love in his childhood. Amir has to return to his old homeland to meet his father's closest friend, Rahim Khan, and to rescue Sohrad, the son of his half-brother, Hassan, from the Taliban regime. The narrator, Amir, treasures the memories of his old homeland, Afghanistan, the innermost remnants of his being, which has become as the specter haunting his present life in the United States. It describes the ambivalent relationship between the father and the son against the background of political turmoil in Afghanistan-how they have a good life together in Afghanistan and afterwards how they are forced to leave their homeland like refugees to Pakistan and then to The United States for a new life with the survivor's guilt after the tumultuous period of the Soviet military invasion. This short paper aims to discuss the unbearably-heavy weight of childhood memory and the survivor's guilt as the symptoms in the novel, The Kite Runner, published in 2003, by an Afghan-American writer, Khaled Hosseini.
