Critique

Khaled Hosseini thrives in showing Amir’s search for redemption from his father throughout the book: The Kite Runner. Hosseini exhibit’s an excellent job of providing examples of this, such as Amir’s aspiration of winning the kite tournament and standing up for himself instead of backing down. Not only is this theme formidable, however it engages the reader and allows us to think about the message while we’re not reading the book. It’s clear to see how alike Amir and Hassan think. This is because while Amir is trying to earn Baba’s redemption, Hassan is trying to earn Amir’s. This is shown in this quote said by Hassan “For you a thousand times over.” This message transfers over to grade 9’s because every day constantly, people are trying to earn redemption and respect from their peers.
