This image represents Soraya's past relationship and how it affects her life. Because of her one previous boyfriend, Soraya has been unable to find a husband before Amir. Most men reject her because of her one small "impurity". She is like a flower with one missing petal--the small difference doesn't really matter, but most people would still not pick it over others. Thus, the flower is pruned from the bush--indicating that to most, she is not a potential wife. Amir is the one person that has accepted her, partially because he himself is impure. Soraya has found her place with Amir, so the flower is perched on the malformed bush.
Nice picture. It really does seem to compliment the idea well.
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting how you chose to talk about Soraya's past and its influence on her future.
ReplyDeleteI really thought that this metaphor was really interesting. It definitely shows Soraya's small impurity and how she was unable to find a husband until Amir.
ReplyDeleteI like how you show both of them are flawed but have managed to find happiness with each other.
