Narration of Chpt 7 Essay
THE memorial IN THIS CHAPTER OPENS WITH HASSANS DREAM, IN WHICH WE SEE A ordained AND blackball OMEN. IN THE DREAM, emeer AND HASSAN ARE CELEBRATED AS HEROES WHICH IS A POSITIVE FORECAST FOR THE UPCOMING COMPETITIONHOWEVER, THE MONSTER SWIMMING AT THE buns (OF THE LAKE), WAITING FORESHADOWS THE MONSTROUS casing THAT IS most TO HAPPEN. THE DREAM JUXTAPOSES THE NIGHTMARE emir WILL WATCH AND HASSAN WILL EXPERI- ENCE LATER ON IN THE CHAPTER, in that respect ARE MANY EXAMPLES OF JUXTAPOSITION IN THIS CHAPTER. THE BEAUTY OF THE day IS TARNISHED WITH THE slimed INCIDENT, WINNING THE COMPETITION IS CONTRASTED WITH LOSING HIS FRIEND, THE SUN SHINING ON THE SNOW-WHITE DAY CLASHES WITH THE DARKNESS OF THE ALLEY, WHICH MEANS THE AUTHOR HERE IS ALSO USING misfortunate FALLACY TO FURTHER INCREASE THE CONTRASTALL THE JUXTAPOSITION MAKES THE EVENT MORE DARK AND DIS- TURBING. WHEN HASSAN IS SHARING HIS DREAM WITH AMIR, AMIR IS ABRUPT TOWARDS HIM AND INTER- RUPTS HIS STORY, HE ALMOST APOLOG ISED, THEN DIDNT.HASSAN UNDERSTOOD, THIS IS AN INDI- CATOR OF THE SOCIETY AND CULTURE THEY LIVED IN, WHERE PASHTUN SUPERIORITY WAS THE AC- CEPTED norm AND HAZARAS WERE CONSIDERED TO BE AN INFERIOR RACE. HASSAN KNOWS HIS PLACE AS THE SERVANT. LATER ON IN THE CHAPTER HASSAN BECOMES THE SACRIFICIAL LAMB, AMIR SAYS I RAN BECAUSE I WAS A COWARD merely THEN TRIES TO CONVINCE HIMSELF HASSAN IS THE PRICE HE HAS TO PAY FOR BABAS LOVE.AMIRS DISMISSAL OF THE SITUATION IS UNUSUAL AS HE IS typically MORE OPEN MINDED ABOUT HASSANS RACE, BUT IN THIS SITUATION HE THINKS TO HIMSELF HE WAS JUST A HAZARA, WASNT HE? , THIS SHOWS HOW DEEP RACISM RUNS IN THE CULTURE. HOWEVER IT IS WORTH notING AMIRS THOUGHTS ARE INTERTWINED WITH HIS NOW freehanded PERSPECTIVE AS HE IS relative THE STORY IN RETROSPECT AFTER HE HAS LIVED WITH THE CONSTANT wickedness OF THIS EVENTTHIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF POSTMODERNISM AS THE NARRATIVE IS FRAGMENTED AND THERE IS implication CREATED IN THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE NARRATIV ES, AMIRS NARRA- TIVE OF HASSANS scandalize IS A GOOD EXAMPLE OF THIS AS THE MEANING OF IT DEEPENS BY heavy(p) AMIRS REASONING. AMIRS ACTIONS HERE MEANS THE increase RUNNER IS A BILDUNGSROMAN, WHERE THE PROTAGONIST OF THE STORYS ACTIONS ARE NOT HEROIC. DURING THE RAPE, AMIRS NARRATIVE BREAKS OFF INTO MEMORIES RATHER THAN SPEAKING ABOUT THE EVENTS ACTUALLY TAKING PLACE. HE DIGRESSES INTO PAST MEMORIES AND EVENTS FROM HIS EARLIER CHILDHOOD, THIS INDICATES THE NARRATORS DIFFICULTY IN DEALING WITH WHATS HAPPENING IN lie OF HIM.ITS ALMOST AS IF THERE ARE GAPS IN HIS ADULT MEMORY AS A RESULT OF HIS CHILDHOOD SELF DISTANCING HIMSELF FROM THE SITUATION. BY HAVING THE EVENTS TAKING PLACE IN AN ALLEY IS REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DARK spirit OF THE EVENTS AND THE FACT THAT AMIR FAILS TO ENTER THE ALLEY SHOWS HIS UNWILLINGNESS TO DEAL WITH THE DARKER THINGS IN LIFE, IT ALSO AL- LOWS THE RAPE TO BECOME A SIDE EVENT, SOMETHING EASILY treat AND NOT A PART OF MAIN- STREAM LIFE. CHAPTER 7 IS THE C LIMAX THE indorser HAS BEEN WAITING FOR SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE NOVEL.HOWEVER WHEN THE EVENT OCCURS WE REALISE IT IS A triad OF THE WAY THROUGH THE NOVEL AND IT ISNT THE EVENT ITSELF BUT THE wake OF IT THAT HAUNTS AMIR AS THE EVENTS ARE FAR FROM OVER. DESPITE FROM THIS, WE KNOW THAT CHAPTER 7 IS THE PIVOTAL CHAPTER AS Micaela Mossop WITHOUT THE EVENTS THAT TAKE PLACE HERE WOULD BE NO STORY TO TELL. THE IDEA THAT THE REPERCUSSION OF AMIRS ACTIONS WILL expunge THE REST OF THE NOVEL IS REINFORCED AT THE END OF THE CHAPTER WHEN HE SOBS IN BABAS ARMS WHICH INDICATES THE GAIN OF HIS FATHERS AFFEC- TION WILL BE TAINTED BY HASSANS SACRIFICE.
