Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini
Physical geographics has a major exercise to the story. The themes of geography that mainly pertain to the story ar Place, Human/ environmental Interactions, and Movement. Place can have physical and human characteristics. The physical geography of Afghanistan changed after the state of wars and the Taliban attacks. For use, in the lead in the old days the wind brush through the irrigated plains around Islamabad where farmers grew sugar cane and the sweetness impregnated the air. flat there were narrow road and dries up gutters. In Kabul when Hosannas and emeer were young boys, they used to run up hills surrounded by poplar tree and Pomegranate trees.Treetops could be seen poking from behind the houses as they played. Now intimately of the trees were g oneness used as wood for lumber to keep Taliban from hiding. Where before you could fins street vendors and restaurants, now there are only dusty roads, addicted buildings, and beggars. The number of beggars and orphaned chi ldren increased after the wars. The change in this geographical sense changed the way of life of the Afghans because now they were homeless because their houses were taken everyplace by guest as the referred to the Taliban.They were left without Jobs, ways of growing crops and providing for their families. The war left omen and children husbandly and fatherless. Another theme of geography that pertains is movement. Because of the war, pot were forced to relocate. Those that had money fled from Afghanistan. Babe and Emir left from Kabul unconditional and into a foreign country, America, in hope of a better future. In Afghanistan they were the aristocratic class and In America they became the working class.The following pagan groups represented In Kite Runner are Afghans. Pakistanis, Arabs, Palestinian, Iranians, Russians, and Germans. The major heathenish groups represented are the Afghans divided into two major groups, the Hazards and the Pushpins, and the Pakistanis. The Haza rds are outsiders harmonise to other Afghans because of their Mongolia indigenous people of eastern and southeast Asia and Arctic region. They are also considered outsiders because the Hazards are Shiite Muslims In a mostly Sunnis Muslim nation.The Pushpins are the dominant ethnic group In Afghanistan accounting for more than one-half of the population. The Pushpins are Sunnis Muslims in a Sunnis Muslim Nation. The majority of Pakistanis practice Islam. Islam g overns their personal, legal, political and economic parts of their life. Pakistanis live in a hierarchical association and are respect because of age and position. There are many examples of their conflicts during the turn tail of the novel. One example Is when Hosannas finds his mothers history book and starts reading it.In the book he finds an inure chapter about the Hazards and how they were persecuted and oppressed by the Pushpins. When he takes it to his teacher, he replies, Thats the one thing Shihs people do well, passing themselves as martyrs. This show how they resist and how they despise each other. Another example is when the teacher ells Emir, that Iranians are smiling smooth talkers who patted you on the back with one hand and picked your pocket with the other. This shows how they dislike each other even though the Iranians, Like the Hazards, are Shihs Muslims.Another example with me in Mazda We left them out for the dogs This shows that the Taliban could not put away their differences and they had so much hatred that they believed the Hazards were as significant as animals. The novel reliably matches the squareity of its time. Throughout the book, it mentions dates important to the plot but also events that happened in reality. For example, it leaked about King Mohammad Sahara Shah being sent away to Italy and being overthrown by his cousin Mohammad Doodad Khan in 1973.When further research was done, it prove to be correct with actual events. Another example of this was when t he book mentions that the Taliban took over and massacred the Hazards in 1998. After further studies, it proved to be accurate with the real events. Another factual event illustrated in the novel was when it mentions the United States boycotting the majestic Games in Moscow in 1980. After research, it is proven that the facts given in the novel match the events that actually occurred.
