Amir recalls an event that happened twenty-six years before, when he was still a boy in
Afghanistan, and says that that made him who he is. Before the event, he lives in a nice home in
Kabul, Afghanistan, with his father. They have two servants, and his son, who are Hazaras, an
ethnic minority. Baba’s close friend, Rahim Khan, is also around often. When Afghanistan’s king
is overthrown, things begin to change. One day, Amir and Hassan are playing when they run into
three boys, Wali, and Kamal. Assef threatens to beat up Amir for hanging around with a Hazara,
but Hassan uses his slingshot to stop Assef.
The story skips to winter, when the kite-fighting tournament occurs. Boys cover their kite strings
in glass and battle to see who can sever the string of the opposing kite. When a kite loses, boys
chase and retrieve it, called kite running. When Amir wins the tournament, Hassan sets off to run
the losing kite. Amir looks for him and finds Hassan trapped at the end of an alley, pinned with
his pants down. Wali and Kamal hold him, and Assef rapes him. Amir runs away, and when
Hassan appears with the kite, Amir pretends he doesn’t know what happened. Afterward, Amir
and Hassan drift apart. Amir, who is racked by guilt, decides either he or Hassan must leave. He
stuffs money and a watch under Hassan’s pillow and tells Baba that Hassan stole it. When Baba
confronts them, Hassan admits to it, though he didn’t do it. Shortly after, Ali and Hassan move
away.
The story jumps to March 1981. Baba and Amir are in the back of a truck as they escape from
Kabul, which was invaded by the Soviets and has become a war-zone. After a hellish journey,
they make it to Pakistan. Two years later, Baba and Amir live in Fremont, California. While Baba
works at a gas station, Amir finishes high school and goes to college. Baba and Amir sell things at
a flea market on Sundays, and Baba sees an old friend, General Taheri. Amir notices General
Taheri’s daughter, Soraya. When Amir finally speaks to her, General Taheri catches him and tells
him there is a proper way to do things. Not long after, Baba is diagnosed with lung cancer. Amir
asks Baba if he will get General Taheri’s consent for Amir to marry Soraya. General Taheri
accepts the proposal. They hold the wedding quickly because of Baba’s health, and Baba dies a
month later. Amir and Soraya try unsuccessfully to have a baby while Amir works on his writing
career.
Amir gets a call from Rahim Khan. Rahim Khan is sick and wants Amir to see him in Pakistan.
Amir meets him a week later, and Rahim Khan tells Amir about the devastation in Kabul. He says
things only got worse after the Soviets were forced out. Now the Taliban rule by violence. He has
a favor to ask of Amir, but first he needs to tell him about Hassan. When Baba and Amir left
Afghanistan, Rahim Khan watched their house. Out of loneliness and because he was getting
older, he decided to find Hassan. He convinced Hassan and Hassan’s wife, Farzana, to come back
to Kabul with him. Farzana and Hassan eventually had a little boy. A few years later Rahim Khan
went to Pakistan for medical treatment, but he received a call from a neighbor in Kabul. The
Taliban went to Baba’s house and shot Hassan and Farzana and sent Sohrab to an orphanage.
Rahim Khan wants Amir to go to Kabul and bring Sohrab back to Pakistan, where a couple lives
that will take care of him. He tells Amir that Baba was Hassan’s father, and Amir agrees to do it.
In Afghanistan, Amir finds the orphanage where Sohrab is supposed to be, but he is not there.
