EXAMPLES OF CAUSE AND EFFECT IN
THE KITE
RUNNER.
- Because
Hassan is so determined to run the losing kite for Amir, Hassan is left isolated when he
is confronted and attacked by Assef. - Because Amir refused
to come to Hassan's assistance when he is raped, Amir's guilt results in his
own insomnia. - Because Hassan refused to hit Amir with a
pomegranate (and symbolically repay Amir for not coming to assist him when he is
assaulted by Assef), Amir realizes he must plant evidence against Hassan so that he will
leave the household for good. - Because Ali and Hassan
leave the household, they are not able to escape Afghanistan with
Baba. - Because of Amir's sins against Hassan, an
overwhelming guilt hangs over him for more than 20
years. - Because Hassan passes on his skills with the
slingshot to his son, Sohrab, Sohrab is able to save Amir from
Assef.
