I think the end of this novel is so appropriate. When Hassan ran the kite for Amir the last time they were happy together, everything changed. And now Amir is running a kite for Sohrab, which hopefully signifies a major change (well, a good change) coming up too. Kite running united so many characters throughout the book. Amir found pride in his father when he won the competition and Amir and Hassan found friendship. (So I guess not really that many people, but the important ones). I'm sensing that Sohrab will find comfort in Soraya and Amir and that he will learn to become less reticent through kite running. If this happens, then Soraya will also finally be able to act as a mother to a child (in desperate need of nurture). And maybe Amir will live a life feeling a little less guilty. By the way, I think I do like Amir.
