Query: Predictable Sensationalism

Usually, I am very sympathetic to young, aspiring writers who pull on their heritage to write about terrible situations around the world, but this is not a well-produced and well-thought out book. The villain is immensely hateable, pulling on all the Hitler/germanic (half) pedophiliac fears lurking in American culture, sadist, brutal and sensual. The love story converts the hero into a suppressed pedophile himself, and the recurring images try to hold together an otherwise predicatable story. I hope Hosseini can do better with his next work.
