The Kite Runner is a modern classic of our times; not only because of its prose but also because of the way it deals with intricate subjects. In this research, we shall analyze the intertwined themes of conflict and trauma, as it is presented in the novel. Conflict comes in many forms and here we take a look at socio-political conflict, i.e. the turmoil faced by the country, and identity conflict, i.e. the issues of identity faced by individuals. Apart from this, trauma is an important component of the novel and we analyze how it manifests in various characters. Our aim is to uncover the relationship conflict has with trauma, and to see the effect of one on the other.
