Xinyue's assignment 3

In my understanding, although Hassan does what servant does Amir and Hassan is just like brothers. Maybe Amir speaks like master to Hassan but he treats Hassan is not like that. Amir enjoys spend time with Hassan, he likes share happiness with Hassan. Like play with snow together, attend kite tournament. When Amir had squabble with Assef, Hassan helped Amir just like a brother. Although Hassan is scared he stood up to help Amir. I think it’s not only responsibility of servant but also the brother doesn’t like other people say something bad about his brother. There is also another reason to say they like brothers. How Baba treats them. When Baba bought the new kite to Amir he also bought the same one for Hassan. And Amir always has felt envious of Hassan. If their relationship is servant and master how it can happen? So After I read the passage I felt they have very close relationship. They need each other.

  2. Xinyue, excellent insights! You raise an excellent point about Baba's relationship and Amir's jealousy of Hassan - I cannot agree with you more. Good entry.
