rereading for the third time as an adult now - this time i’m horrified by Amir - no one who watches someone get raped, pretend it didn’t happen, and then go on to betray them and drive them out of their home, should go unpunished - the love Hassan retains for Amir in this situation now feels kind of naive - real goodness is not naivety, it’s love in the face of horror, which takes more than everything in you
