In chapter 1 we find out that something happened to Amir at the age of 12 which has made him what he is today.He received a phone call from Rahim Khan, who is in Pakistan, last summer. He asks Amir to come to Pakistan and see him.Once off the phone he takes a walk in the park, noticing 2 red kites which remind him of Hassan. starting with chapter 2 Amir reminisces about his childhood with Hassan and how they used to be troublemakers
We are given a detailed description of Hassan, and find out his is a loyal friend.Hassan is a Hazara and Amir is a Pashtun. Amir finds out that the Hazara had an uprising which was brutally suppressed by the Pashtuns.In chapter 3 We get a description of Baba, who comes across a little scary. He does all the things people say he cannot: design and build an orphanage, marry well, become a successful business man etc... also Amir tries to impress his father, but thinks his talents (reading and poetry) are not considered manly enough by Baba.
