Is viewing The Kite Runner through a critical lens affecting my analysis?

Sometimes when knowing about the critical lens affects your analysis later on, but in the book The Kite Runner, makes me forget that this isn't based on a true story. Knowing that its fiction doesn't make me look at it any differently. It may change the way other people look at it because everyone has different views.

The conflict in this book with Baba and Amir, and rape of Hassan are both realistic problems that can happen in real life and that is a reason I forget this isn't based off of a true story.

This is a fiction book that seems so realistic. This book is a coming of age story and it also is shown as a memoir because of all the flashbacks he has from his childhood. If you ask questions based on this novel or any novel, not everyone would answer the same way as you. People have different opinions.
