Summary

Chapter 18

Amir spends some time wishing Rahim Khan hadn’t called him and that he’d continued his life in America without knowing what happened to Hassan. But he announces he will go find Sohrab and instructs Rahim Khan to call the Caldwells, the couple who have agreed to accept Sohrab once he’s out of Afghanistan.

Chapter 19

Amir is paired up with a man named Farid who will provide transportation and guidance on his quest to find Sohrab. They spend a night at Farid’s house and Amir eats a meal. Farid’s sons stare at him and he gives them his watch only to discover later that there hadn’t been enough food in the house for his meal and for the children. He leaves money under a mattress, knowing they would not accept it from him otherwise.
