隨感
阿米爾為了認(rèn)識(shí)索拉婭,每天裝作不經(jīng)意的樣子在索拉婭的攤位前經(jīng)過(guò),日夜思念,飽受相思之苦,最后終于鼓起勇氣向索拉婭搭訕,二人相識(shí),又交談甚歡,但無(wú)奈受到人們的閑言碎語(yǔ)的困擾,突出了阿富汗深入人心的保守思想。文中用大量篇幅描繪了從發(fā)現(xiàn)父親咳血到去醫(yī)院反復(fù)確診的過(guò)程,長(zhǎng)達(dá)4個(gè)星期,凸顯阿米爾內(nèi)心的焦灼不安,同時(shí)渴望得到索拉婭的陪伴,而父親拒絕化療,一方面可能覺(jué)得治標(biāo)不治本的做法不可取,沒(méi)有必要浪費(fèi)錢財(cái),另一方面父親內(nèi)心的自尊感讓他無(wú)法接受化療后的副作用,想體面的離去。這也與阿米爾軟弱的性格形成反差,文中令人感到開(kāi)心的是,父親幫助阿米爾談成了婚事,迎娶了索拉婭,而阿米爾內(nèi)心對(duì)哈桑的歉疚卻始終未能公諸于世,父親臨終也未能得知真相。
