Chapters 1-5 (pp. 1-47)

Describe Amir.  Why does Baba sometimes hate him?

Amir is a kind natured, intelligent young man, but is 'softer' than Baba is.  This causes frustration on Baba's side because he wants his son to be macho, like him!  Amir is more artistic and contemplative and definitely not a violent person as a whole.  Eventually Baba somewhat accepts Amir as he is.
