The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini begins in the 1970s in Kabul, Afghanistan, when the country is in a time of an ending monarchy. The main character, Amir, is the son of wealthy Afghanistan business man, and his playmate, Hassan, the son of his father's houseman, Ali. Hassan is a Hazara and Amir is a Pashtun, which makes them from different social classes. The author has undoubtedly stirred my emotions and I admit that I did cry several times. I think that this was the author's objective; this is

A common misconception in our society is that an individual does not want to make an effort to meet the community's needs. In order for a person to be successful--without repeating the same mistakes--the community must come together and meet its needs without infringing on the liberties of the people.

Kite Runner shows the ability from the main character who finally accepts that his best friend, Hassan, was raped as a child and he did not help. This is a very slow process for Amir and the final acceptance happens in a very unlikely circumstance. When Amir goes to get Sohrab, after Hassan is dead, he has to get him from the Taliban and more specifically Assef, who ironically was the person who raped Hassan in their youth. This situation takes a turn for the worst rather quickly and Assef with his famous

Title The title that I gave these chapters is “Unfinished Business”. The highlight of these chapters was undoubtedly the part where Assef reveals himself to Amir and how he is the one who has Sohrab. As Assef mentions “We have some unfinished business, you and I” (Hosseini 300) when referring to Amir and himself. This title not only applies to the part where Assef and Amir had a fight, but also how Amir grew as a person. Amir had a lot of unfinished business that he had to finish, such as repenting

does not follow that fetus are persons. Some countries even go to the extent of legalizing abortion given that it is done within 12 weeks from conception because they believe life is still not present in early stages of pregnancy. According to Mehdi Hassan (2012), the countries included are France, Germany, Italy and Belgium, also stating that it is a norm across Western Europe. Therefore, further research would be needed to conclude when life starts for a human in order to determine whether abortion

also be seen as the character trait of Deceitful. While at Amir’s party, Assef acts as if he is innocent and Amirs friend. He even invites Amir to his hosue so they can play volleyball but in reality instead he will do horrible things to Amir and Hassan. Another reason why he is deceitful is because of how he tries to be seen as a savior and how he is doing the right thing by getting rid of all the Hazaras. Assef wants to be like Hitler so that’s why he wants to exterminate all of the Hazaras because
