Kite Runner Reaction 3

The last few chapters of the Kite Runner have been really intense. Amir is tormented with the guilt and amazingly develops insomnia at a very young age. This made me sympathize with Amir a bit because it is very obvious that he feels awful about what he did to Hassan. I found it interesting how Amir resents Hassan for his unwavering loyalty and it seems his resentment only intensifies as the story moves forward. Amir continues to seek his father's approval and savors the praise given to him for winning the kite tournament. It was sad to see that his father slowly lose interest in the fact that his son won a kite running tournament and things go back to "normal".The actions of Amir's father were rather predictable however I for one was hoping for Baba to finally open his eyes to the damage he is doing to the relationship with his son , perhaps with the help of Rahim Khan.My hatred Assef was greatly intensified in these chapters and when it became clear that Assef is smart enough to deceive those around him and intimidate his parents into obeying his wishes, I began to think only awful things can come next in the Kite Runner concerning Assef. The fact that he  jovially joked with Hassan at Amir's party was deeply unsettling. What I look forward to in the Kite Runner is hopefully that the issue will be addressed between Hassan and Amir. I hope that Amir's guilt drives him to confront Hassan directly and ask for his forgiveness.Given the events so far I doubt any closure will come so soon in the book ; However, I look foward to seeing  where Hosseini will take the story from here.
