    There is famous saying that, “Life repeats following a circular path. That is why history repeats itself”. Circularity has a strong connection to the main theme in the novel- sin and atonement. This idea is portrayed throughout Khaled Hosseini’s first novel The Kite Runner. The novel takes place in Afghanistan where the main characters Amir and Hassan grow up. Through a beautiful yet devastating love story, Amir betrays the one person who has always been loyal to him; his best friend Hassan. Years after their separation Amir is given the chance to “become good again” from Rahim Khan who was an uncle-like figure in Amir’s life. Circularity, one of the key concepts in the novel, is used as a narrative technique by Hosseini. He uses circularity in his novel, by portraying Amir’s redemptions years after his betrayal of Hassan, through Wahid, Sohrab and Assef.…

    Kite Runner Analysis

    • 967 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The novel The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini follows the life of the afghan man, Amir, and his struggles with his past life in Kabul. In the beginning of the book, Amir, although smart and kind at heart, is mentally taken over by his want of acceptance by his father, and in turn, takes it out on his best friend and more than loyal servant Hassan. On multiple occasions Amir is found making life for Hassan hard, whether it be through deception or through selfishness. Overall, when Amir is looked at altogether as a character, it can easily be seen that his actions as a child where fueled by a constant want to be accepted by his father, a tough business man who fosters a strong disappointment with his sons lack of similar qualities, something the reader can sympathize with. As well, the reader is coaxed into forgiveness of Amir after his admittance of being a coward, after understanding his mental struggles, and finally after he adopts Sohrab and the role of Hassan and Amir’s relationship is reversed…

    According to Maya Angelou, “History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.” This quote implies that history is permanent and it is simply impossible for one to change the past. As humans we make bad choices that we have to live with that can potentially haunt us later in life. The only way to change this reality is to foster a brave outlook on life. With a little courage and a clear conscience, one can make a better decision next time one faces that a similar obstacle. This quote proves to be valid in numerous ways. The Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini is great example of this critical lens. The novel illustrates the quotation well. It presents a main character named Amir that experiences something awful, and makes a decision that will affect his life forever.…
