Just like a kite flying in the sky full of soars and dives, Amir's life was pretty much the same as the way kites fly. He went through many high points such as his father's acceptance when he won the kite competition and marrying his love Soraya. Just like the dives made by kite, his life was filled with low points too such as when his father dying so as his servant, later known half-brother, Hassan's murder by the Talibans. Nevertheless, after the "plunging of the kite" it goes back soaring in the air with the story ending with a rather happy ending with Amir accomplishing his goal of bringing back his half-brother's son Sohrab to America after much trouble getting him and getting him through the authorities.
