Chapter 23- Amir in Hospital

We are now beginning to analyse Chapter 23, where Amir is in hospital, after being beaten by Assef. I began looking at how the narrative viewpoint changes and how it became broken and disjointed to begin with, which shows how Amir is falling in and out of consciousness. We looked at the difference in tone and feeling from Amir, in this chapter. Before the beating, Amir was a self-loathing character, but now I think he is slowly beginning to accept himself. I think he feels quite positive about what happened to him, because on some level he believed he deserved it. We are also analysing other techniques used, such as the way Amir asks himself so many questions when he's going in and out of consciousness.
