The Theme Of Forgiveness In 'The Kite Runner'
Hassan is able to forgive the people who turned their backs on him. Amir let Hassan get a punishment for defending him. Amir finds out many years later that Hassan knew Amir was in that alleyway that night, yet Hasson still tries to reach Amir for years and wrote letters. Which Hassan knew there was a slim chances of it ever reaching Amir, “show me how to reach the unreachable.” Also Hasson’s mother shows up. Hassan’s mother left the moment Hassan was born and never even held him. Yet Hassan forgave his mother, and, “ loved the unlovable.” “She was home now, he said, home with her family,” (Hosseini 210). Despite everything people did to Hassan he was still able to forgive. Which is a gift Hassan has for himself and also gives to others.
