Once Assef is finished assaulting Hassan, Assef and his goons run away. Hassan then gets up and finds Amir so that he can give him the kite. The loyalty that Hassan shows Amir is motivated by multiple factors. One of which is that Hassan may have felt an underlying connection to Amir due to them being brothers, another reason is that because Hassan was raised as a servant he had the mentality that he was
Loyalty and support is all Ali and Hassan provided to Baba’s entire family from the beginning. Ali has done everything for Amir from making his breakfast to getting his clothes ready in the morning. In addition, Amir made the wrong decision as Hassan and Amir are basically brothers. Family or in this case family friends have to stick together, “Did you know Hassan and you were fed from the same beast? Did you know that, Amir agha?”
How does Amir react? Hassan spoke as an older version of his younger self and he was still the most loyal friend to Amir, by showing his concern for Amir’s whereabouts and life in general. Hassan letters were written with such passion and interest and had Amir’s wellbeing at heart. Even though Hassan knew that his best friend had betrayed him, he was always ready to forgive Amir but Amir was the one that could face Hassan because he couldn’t forgive himself.
Baba speaks these words to Rahim Khan when they are having a conversation about Amir at the end of Chapter 3, and this quotation begins to reveal significant traits in both Baba and Amir. With these words Baba begins to sum up one of Amir’s crucial character flaws which is his lack of bravery, in other words cowardice, and Baba continues to reveal how much value he places in standing up for what is right. We see this later on in the book when Baba and Amir are fleeing Kabul and Baba stands up to the young Russian soldier that was attempting to rape the young Afghan woman. Baba is shown to be unenthusiastic to praise Amir, primarily because he feels Amir is absent of the courage to even stand up for himself, leaving Amir continuously yearning
Hassan showed great loyalty to Amir throughout the story. In Chapter 5 Hassan defended Amir from Assef when Assef pulled out his Brass Knuckles on Amir. “And I saw with a sinking heart what he had fished
He is so loyal to Amir that there is one quote in the novel that proves it, “For you, a thousand times over.” This quote stuck with me because it is showing how he will absolutely do anything for his friend, even if it means that he could pay the consequences. For instance there was a part of the novel where Amir asks Hassan to throw the fruit at him and hurt him as hard and as much as he wants but instead all Hassan did was hit himself with the fruit proving that he will never do anything to hurt his friend, he splits hits himself with the pomegranate which opens it and asks Amir if he is happy yet and walks home. “Then Hassan did pick up a pomegranate. He walked toward me.
Hassan’s foremost loyalty is to Amir, and it leads him to sacrifice himself to Assef’s assault for the sake of Amir’s relationship with Baba. Despite the opportunity to change Hassan’s fate, Amir stays silent in the face of brutality and justifies
When Amir was a young boy, he treated Hassan very poorly. He would purposely do things to tease Hassan. Because of Hassan’s innocence, he never realized how bad of a friend Amir was. Amir was selfish and self centered when other people would judge his friendship with the servant by known as Hassan.
The novel The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini proves the famous quote “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree”. Many father son duos seem to never realize how alike they really are, only after closer analysis are the similarities found. A prime example of this is Amir and Baba. In the beginning of the novel they seemed to be polar opposites. Baba a father focused on keeping his dignity and protecting the dignity of others.
Baba holds the secret that Hassan is his son to protect his social status in society, Amir hides Hassans rape and keeps it to himself and pretends it did not happen. Moreover, their best friends are their servants. In addition, both Amir and Baba show an act of kindness and generosity in the novel. Baba builds an orphanage, while Amir
Amir is the villain of The Kite Runner because he is greedy for Baba’s love, this leads to his disloyalty to Hassan and demonstrates his cowards because of his feelings of his guilt. Amir, although living a luxurious life feels something is missing, and it’s his father’s approval, he would do anything for it. After winning the kite tournament went to search for Hassan to see him surrounded by Assef and his two friends but, “Behind him, sitting on piles, of scraps and rubble, was the blue kite. [His] key to Baba’s heart” (71). All he cared about was the kite he cut in the tournament, he even sacrificed his best friend just for his father’s love.
The development of friendship in these characters are shown throughout the book, with the betrayal of a friend and the tension between one another. Hassan was always devoted to Amir and sacrificed anything for him, but Amir was less so. For instance, Amir betrays many people in the novel in an effort to win over his father. Seeing that Baba always treated Hassan differently than Amir, not knowing that they were half brothers and that Baba is also Hassan's father. In the novel Amir states that Hassan has stolen this watch-- being faithful to Amir-- Hassan takes
On the other hand, his Hazara servant and childhood friend, Hassan, has always remained loyal to Amir even with his atrocious betrayal. His knowledge of Amir’s deceitful actions never impeded him from ultimately sacrificing himself for Amir’s benefit. Hassan’s compassionate and forgiving attitude added to Amir’s guilt, making it nearly impossible for him to forgive himself. Hassan’s tremendous sacrifice highlights his kind hearted nature, which eventually positively impacts Amir’s life turning him into a more appreciative person. Growing up together led Amir and Hassan to
A country that is an exemplification of the diversity of life is Australia. This country has consistently evolved over centuries and its various species is a reflection of this. Within the Australian ecosystem is a population of rare snails. These snails are known scientifically as Thersites mitchellae or commonly referred to as the Mitchell's rainforest snail. These are a species of snails most widely known for their vibrant and colorful shell.
Amir and Hassan enjoyed doing everything together however, Amir never considered Hassan his friend. This was mainly affected by religion since Amir was a Pashtun and Hassan was a Hazara. Amir took advantage of their friendship. He would make fun of Hassan whenever he could but Hassan never took it personally and thought of him as his best friend. Hassan was both mentally and physically stronger than Amir.
