The Kite Runner #3

I'm beginning to notice the great amount of description Hosseini uses in The Kite Runner. An example is when the speaker is talking of his father's house, "Everyone agreed that my father, my Babahad built the most beautiful house in the Wazir Akbar Khan district, a new and affluent neighborhood in the northern part of Kavul. Some thought it was the prettiest house in all of Kabul. A vroad entryway flanked by rosebushes led to the sprawling house of marble floors and wide windows. Intricated mosaic tiles, handpicked by Baba in Isfaestries, which Baba had bought in Calcutta, lined the wall; a crystal chandelier hung from the vaulted ceiling" (Hosseini 4). I believe this detail depicts the personality of the main character, Amir. He seems to be very thorough and conscientious about his decisions based on the plot and stories that he has shared at this point in the book. Amir seemed to be very close to his friends in Kabul, and the endless stories he recounts recollect the moments that were interrupted by some event. This has not yet been revealed, but I'm hoping to get an understanding of it soon.
