  • The kites are a matter of honor and pride. Hassan’s kite running instincts make him the best in the city, but his running of the last kite to fall leads to his assault and humiliation. The kites are banned shortly after the Taliban take over. Kites are what finally bring Sohrab and Amir together back in the United States.
  • Hassan loved to listen to the story of Rostam and Sohrab. The story details a legendary fighter who fights a man, but neither knows the true identity of the other. Rostam kills Sohrab, then discovers that Sohrab is his son. This story echoes Hassan and Amir, who don’t know they are brothers. By the time Amir discovers Hassan’s identity, Hassan is dead.
  • Sohrab becomes a symbol and a driving force for Amir in his search for redemption for what he did to Hassan. While Amir can’t save Hassan, he can save Sohrab from the hands of Assef. Giving Sohrab a chance at a new life in America, and a permanent, safe home is a way that Amir can make up for his betrayal of Hassan.
  • The brass knuckles are introduced at the beginning of the novel when Assef almost beats up Amir for hanging out with Hassan, a Hazara. When Amir goes to rescue Sohrab from the Taliban, Assef says that he has to earn Sohrab’s freedom. He takes out the brass knuckles and beats Amir nearly to death until Amir is saved by a little boy with a slingshot.
