Afghan literature

Afghanistan is a country far away from where we are. They have a different language called Dari which is very beautiful. People who live in Afghanistan like to write stories, poems, and books in Dari language. These stories and books are called Afghan Literature.

Afghan literature is very important because it tells us about the people and their culture. It helps us to understand how they live, what they believe in, and their history. It's like reading a book about a faraway land full of interesting characters and adventures.

Some popular Afghan writers are Khalilullah Khalili, Rahimeh Andalibian, and Khaled Hosseini. Khalilullah Khalili wrote a lot of poems, Rahimeh Andalibian likes to write stories for children, and Khaled Hosseini wrote a book called "The Kite Runner" which became very famous all over the world.

In Afghanistan, people love to read and they even have special places called libraries where they can borrow books, just like we do. But sometimes it's hard for them to get books because of the war there. So, it's very important for us to appreciate Afghan literature and try to learn from it so we can understand about Afghanistan and its people better.
