Explanation:
MoreAmir is a young boy in Kabul, Afghanistan, during the 1970s. He lives with his father, whom he calls "Baba,” and their servants, Ali and Hassan. Ali is one of Baba's oldest friends, but because he is Hazara, a race of Afghan descended from Moguls, he is considered lower class and must work as a servant. Hassan is Ali's son and Amir's closest friend. Because Hassan is also Hazara, he is not allowed to go to school with Amir and must work with Ali.
Amir spends most of his free time playing with Hassan and reading to him, but often plays tricks on his friend by making up the wrong endings to the stories. Although Amir loves Hassan and thinks of him more as a brother than a servant, he cannot help being jealous of him because of the way Baba also loves Hassan. Amir, who is desperate for his father's approval, doesn't understand why his father buys Hassan birthday presents or insists on taking him with them on family outings. Even though Amir sometimes treats him cruelly, Hassan always forgives Amir. Hassan stands up to the bullies who pick on them in the streets. One boy, Assef, vows to get his revenge on them after Hassan threatens him with a slingshot to stop him from beating Amir.
