I like this book. Hassan always said "for you, a thousand times over," bur Amir chose to ignore, such a tragic results not only is caused by the individual differences in these young and the children had been instilled the subconscious and corresponding to their social status "should" and "should not", a hazara servant should fight, but noble master is not worth to take any risks for a hazara servant. It is unfair.People can not adviod his human weakness, what’s the most important things is beat it. Amir came over it and make up his mistake in the end. It is what I learned from the book.
