This quote stuck out to me because we rarely have any insight on Ali’s life that does not seem meaning less but deals with more than being a servant. On the overhead, I put a quote about a teacher from Nancy Osa's Cuba 15. This quote adds a caring yet saddening tone to the novel, because the only reason Ali feels as if he must do this is because of the hatred toward the hazzar culture. This foreshadows the run in with Assef in the alley, because Ali would not constantly worry if there were no reason to. It reveals the nature of Hassan’s father that Amir desperately craves, even though he is just as concerned as a good parent. This quote is important because it gives more insight on how Ali acts toward Hassan. I heard him mutter a prayer under his breath- he always said a prayer when his son left his house” (Hosseini 60). This foreshadows him attempting to darken Hassan’s purity and make him equal or under him. He is being “phony” to himself by denying and not admitting to himself how he really is. This stood out to me because Amir even in his own head is in denial of his actual actions. It makes the reader feel less pity for him. ![]() It adds a negative light to Amirs image in the book. He does not want to face the fact that he truly is “phony”. It is important because not only does it have an envious tone to it, but also it is truth to Amirs actual personality as he shows he is not the most honest person.

It does reveal that Amir is aware how unhealthy it is to crave his father’s attention regardless of the circumstance. It foreshadows possibly Amir killing or doing something eccentric in order to prove him self to his father and feel accepted. It stands out to me because attention and affection from a parent is something that should not be so deprived from a child to a point that it is their only goal they wish to achieve. It adds to the level of unsettling attention seeking Amir exudes. The fact that a war could have begun around them that could have potentially killed them and him not caring because his father was finally embracing him in his arms giving him what he so long craved. Amir is so obsessed over his father affection that he does not care how he obtains it. #1: “We let him wrap us in his arms and, for a brief insane moment, I was glad about whatever had happened that night”(Hosseini 36).
