    (Library Information Services, COMSATS University Islamabad, Lahore Campus, 2020) Asma Nawaz; CIIT/SP19-REL-005/LHR/LHR; Dr. Sardar Muhammad; LHR TP 6528
    The land of Afghanistan has gone through many disasters in the last three decades of the 20th century. There were atrocities, violence, killing due to civil war and invasion of the Soviet Union. ―The Kite Runner‖ and ―A Thousand Splendid Suns‖ are two novels by Khaled Hosseini that describe what happened to Afghanistan during the period when the Soviet Union invaded and during the regime of the Taliban. The present study is an analysis of the impacts of invasion of the forces on Afghanistan described in ―The Kite Runner‖ and ―A Thousand Splendid Suns‖. Qualitative research with descriptive textual analysis is research methodology and Johan Galtung‘s theory ―Violence, Peace and Peace Research‖ in which he presents six distinctions of violence and typology of violence is applied as a theoretical framework. The results of the study of the two novels; show that forces have destroyed the peace of Afghanistan by killing its people, destroying its landscape and this work is important because it tells about the ravages that war and invasion brings and tells how these ravages affected the lives of the natives of Afghanistan.
