3) What are the weaknesses of this book, in your opinion?
The book that I'm reading is call the Kite Runner. It by Khaled Hosseini, it a very powerful and hunting fictional novel.It about a a little boy who had to make transformation from Afghanistan to the united states to get away from the war but the guilt he had in his heart and the memory of thing he seen and went through wont let him have piece or a mind of freedom.
Amir and Hassan are two best friend living in Afghanistan. they went through some hard time with the kids and the environment that was surrounding them. Hassan and Amire enjoyed flying kite. They were in a kite fighting tournament. They won won and that was were the trouble began. when Hassan left Amir to go get the kite. Because he felt like since Amire cut the kite he should keep it. When he was in the alley get the kite Eself the guy who was always bothering him saw him.He told him to give up the kite. Hassan did not wanted to. He told Amir that he was going to bring it back, so he felt he should fulfill his promise.. Eself said that since Hassan don't want to give the kite up he will do something that will remind him of the day he refuse to give the kite. Eself rapes Hassan. When Amir was looking for Hassan he saw everything that went on. Amir was to scared to go help because he knew what Eself were capable of doing the same thing to him and again there was two other guys who could help.
Amir kept that in his heart and dint tell anybody. even though later on Hassan found out that Amir saw them.
Amir and his father left Afghanistan to America. His father was getting away from the Russians. Living in America was not fun for Amir because the memory of what happen to hassan kept on flashing in his mind and he want to do something that will show to hassan he was very sorry that he did not help.
Amir got married years on in the states. His father died. The death of his father open doors to the hidden secrets.Amir found out that Hassan were his brother so he
went back to Afghanistan to find his brother and the story pick up from here.
3) The weakness of this book may not be a weakness to some people but in my opinion it is. I felt like the book were missing a big information. He should of added something about why Aaself acted the way he did. I wanted the Aurthur to add something about his child hood or the background of his life. Was he hurt before in the past and nobody was there for him. Did he feel like he should hurt and bother someone else because he is replacing his pain.
The other weakness of this book is that Hassan should have never died. I wanted the two brother to get together and there should of been a section of them having a reunion together. The author should of put something in the book of why Amir treated Hassan like he did. did he acted different towards him because of what he saw, was he sacred and wanted to protect his self.i wanted them to write something about both of the friends/brother forgiving each other.
2) The Audience for this book are people who liked to read powerful fictional book. It also for people who are interested in the Afghanistan's battles and war.For example if you are interested and want to know why really the Russians went to Afghanistan there will probably be some information about that.
The title of the book do have to do something about kite. When you are interested in kite there is a unique game in here you can learned about.
I call my self an Audience of this book because when i read it i really enjoyed it. It is a very powerful book. Even though it was fictional novel it got to me really deeply. Every-time i open the book i discovered something new.
I am also an audience of the kite runner because i get engaged into it and i imagine the story in my head.
8)The character that have really interested me while i was reading this book is Hassan. In my opinion i take Hassan as a person who Scarifies his self just to please people he loves interest.
“....You’re a lucky Hazara,” Assef said,taking a step toward hassan. “Because today,it’s only going to cost you that blue kite.”
“Amir agha won the tournament and I ran this kite for him. I ran it fairly. This is his kite.”
I don't know why hassan did not just give up the kite and tell Amir he could not have found it.
In my group discussion i have decided that Amire don like Hassan but he would not want to show it because he is scared. the two friends use to hang out and have fun till the accident happen to Hassan. Amire felt like he should protect his self by staying away.
“Baba came out and ask. Did you steal Amir watch. Hassan?” Hassan reply was a single world, delivered in a thin,raspy voice: “yes”
“ I flinched, like I’d been slapped. My heart sank and i almost blurted out the truth. Then i understood: this was Hassan final sacrifice for me.”
. I feel like he went to far by lying because he knew it would get Hassan and his dad out the house.I agree with amir that, that will be the lat Scarifies Hassan do for him.
