"I became what I am today in the summer of 1975."
This opening is effective because it causes the reader to ask questions about what happens not only thoughout the book, but what happened in the past to shape this man. The author, Khaled Housseini, uses foreshadowing to show that the events that has shaped this man will be revealed later on in the novel.
I agree. is there anything about the language that you found interesting?
