02br
00(2)00 00Redemption00: “there is a way to be good again.” There exists a way for Amir to rid himself of guilt and atone for his sinful past. Eventually the roles are reversed and it is time for Amir to be the sheep and sacrifice for Hassan. When he is beaten by Assef, he is enduring the physically pain, but he is healed spiritually and rids the burden of the troublesome past. He redeems himself finally.02br

01b00What is the metaphor in kite running?02b02br
02br
00The kite may be a metaphor in many aspects.For example, the relationship between BaBa and Amir(they live in the same house, but in different spheres of existence.),Amir and Hassan( BaBa is a man torn between two halves, Amir and Hassan. Amir is the legitimate halve, while Hassan is the illegitimate one. He can not love Hassan for the rules and customs the traditional society held. or the social status between Pashtun and Hazara, Sunni and Shi’a.02br
02br
01b00What does Hassan the other face mean?02b02br
02br
00 00Maybe it is just a figment of Amir’s imagination, or we can perceive it as a hidden character restrained in Hassan. As a servant, Hassan is not allowed to reveal his true self. All he has to do is to serve his masters well. He is born to act like this: a man with unwavering loyalty, obedience, and sacrifice himself if necessary. But at this moment, we can infer that he is aroused by some stimulus, Amir’s words hurt his self-esteem, for a fraction of moment, Hassan reveals himself that he has never done it before. In seconds, nothing happens and it is just him again.02br
