For "The Kite Runner" fans
Fairfax County has invited author Khaled Hoseini to discuss his amazing bestselling book, "The Kite Runner". Definitely a great event for anyone who enjoyed the book or wants to read it.
"Set in Afghanistan and America, The Kite Runner is a story about the friendship between a wealthy Afghan youth and his servant?s son. The novel is an exquisitely told story of betrayal, redemption and a father-son relationship that offers insight into the culture of Afghanistan and the experience of some Afghan-Americans.
Author Khaled Hosseini was scheduled to appear live on September 20 at 7:30 p.m. at the Fairfax County Government Center to discuss his book, The Kite Runner. Due to an unprecedented response, we have moved this event to the Center for the Arts Concert Hall on the Fairfax campus of George Mason University. Seating will now be on a first come, first served basis; no registration or tickets will be required. Doors will open at 6:30 p.m. As we get closer to the event, please check back here for updates on where to park."

Comments on this journal
"Parking is available for a $5.00 charge in the parking deck adjacent to the Concert Hall or free in lots J and K.
Due to the large audience size, Dr. Hosseini will not be able to sign books for all. A limited number of books, with signed book plates, will be available for purchase the evening of the program, with a limit of two books per person.
In addition, 200 audience members will be randomly selected to have the opportunity to have two copies of The Kite Runner signed by Dr. Hosseini. We apologize for any disappointment this may cause, but we are anticipating 5 times the original number of attendees, and felt this was the fairest solution given Dr. Hosseini?s schedule. Thank you for your interest in this event."
