Hawthorne uses the scarlet letter as the most recurring symbol throughout the novel. He also uses nature, such as the forest, rose bush, and meteor, and even uses people -Pearl, the "Black Man", and even Mistress Hibbins.

Kite Runner Quote Analysis Character: Amir Quote: ?America was different. America was a river, roaring along, unmindful of the past.

Context: This quote begins the new stage in Amir?s life when he moves to the United States. Significance: America was not just a window of opportunity for Amir. He viewed the country as a refuge from his past memories and hoped that the ?American river? will wash him free of his sins.
