When the men were hung, Mr. Davies thought he had failed at his responsibility and was a poor leader. Mr. Tetley believed the three men were guilty and he convinced most of the people to believe they were guilty. Mr. Davies has a very strong argument but I, personally, cannot agree with it.

Corey Lawson 03/12/2010 English 1102 Michelle Crummy Kite Runner Literary analysis Of the many themes in this story, betrayal seems to transpire the most, followed by the also abundant theme of guilt. Both of these themes directly or indirectly affect almost every character in the book and act as the solid rock that a majority of Amir and Baba’s actions assemble.

Yes it is tragic that it has to be over something so upsetting like death, but sometimes something tragic needs to happen for people to put aside their differences, be able to come together and support each other. This is another reason why I chose these certain lines.

This life-altering episode aggravated his mental disorder and left him, “unable to whistle or sing with his former innocence and delight in life”. However, even in the depths of his distress, his morals, ethics and beliefs sustained a vital element of his emotional universe, providing Romulus with comfort in his despair. Consequently, unlike Christine, Romulus was distinguished as a victim of a severe sickness and he therefore was given unconditional support by his neighbours.
