This image exhibits Farid's relationship with Amir through the relationship of the 2 parts of this vehicle.
The wire fence in the alley represents their initial misunderstanding; Farid thinks that Amir is only working for profit and holds resentment. Their misunderstanding prevents their relationship from traveling anywhere or progressing, which is seen by how the vehicles are unable to escape the narrow alley of their initial relationship.
However, once they get the fence out of the way, Farid, the PowerBoss, has the power to guide Amir, the blue motor, across Afghanistan with his knowledge of the landscape and his connections. This is seen by the PowerBoss pulling the blue motor.
The broken down state of the blue motor represents Amir after his confrontation with Assef; even after this Farid sticks with him and transports him to the hospital, where he has the ability to recover. The chain connecting them represents Farid's loyalty to Amir even after Amir gets into a dangerous situation.
I think that you have really good insights of the book and I really like the connections that you made. Make sure the image is linked to the post!
ReplyDeleteReally cool connections between your image and Amir and Farid's relationship. I like how connected the fence to their misunderstanding, blocking their relationship from going anywhere.
ReplyDeleteI like how you guys chose a relationship that has many different sides to it like the image and how their views of each other changed.
