Q

How is Tariq presented as a character? (3 points)

A

He is a foil to Rasheed’s character - a gentle
who maintains a just view of the world

As a child, he is very lighthearted, but as he grows older and experiences the effects of Afghanistan’s political conflicts, he becomes extremely resilient

He adapts when it is required of him - he escapes to the hotel where he works at the end of the novel

Q

How is Tariq presented as a good husband? (3 points)

A

Whereas Rasheed desires to possess and control Laila, Tariq displays his love through loyalty and respect

Tariq treats Aziza and Zalmai as if both are his biological children

He loves his country just as Laila does - though they have a few differing beliefs, they ultimately find common ground in wanting to rebuild and make a home in Afghanistan.
