Sohrab and Amir's Relationship
This image represents Sohrab and Amir's relationship in the novel due to the relationship that the photographed hand has with the tap. The hand, which represents Amir, is unable to control the flow of water coming from the tap, which is Sohrab's emotions. This proves that Sohrab does not want to open himself up to anybody, because he is afraid of being hurt again. The soap dispenser represents the fact that Sohrab views himself as dirty. Amir has the opportunity to make Sohrab feel clean again, but it is a constant battle between the sink and the hand, and allowing Amir's access to his emotions. Once the water is released, it becomes an unstoppable flow of Sohrab's emotions that Amir cannot control.

I really like this metaphor you chose and the way it is so creative and connects to several things in the relationship between Amir and Sohrab.
ReplyDeleteYou have a very unique way of portraying these objects and I really like how you used the water to shoe Sohrab's flowing emotions.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very different and interesting way of looking at Amir and Sohrab's relationship. I like the inclusion of the soap dispenser as Sohrab's cleanliness
ReplyDeleteI like how you included the hand as part of the metaphor as well. It's really creative and well thought out.
ReplyDeleteI think that the way you interpreted this was very interesting. However, I'm not exactly sure why the hand and the sink are really conflicting with each other.
ReplyDeleteI like how the tap is used to represent the uncontrollable flow of Sohrab's emotions and how the hand cannot control it. I think that the soap dispenser could also symbolize how Sohrab is helping Amir to become a better person by "cleaning" his conscience.
ReplyDeleteI love the way that your group put effort into staging a picture, and all that work payed off because the end result is a great metaphor
ReplyDeleteI really really like how out of the ordinary this metaphor is. While most people found things like trees or bushes, you thought of a more than two dimensional metaphor which included the hand and the sink. me gusta!
ReplyDeleteThis was a very unique way to represent Sohrab and Amir's relationship. I also liked how you added the hand in your photo.
