Charles Bronson Isn't Iranian?

With what I have read so far I think the story is going to have an ironic end to it. Similar, to the story written by Amir about the tears turning to pearls. The adolescent hardships being experienced by Amir and Hassan seem to be without any grace from God at the moment. But, it seems that those problems are merely situational creations by Amir. Although, Amir might have the best of intentions, it is hard to determine at this point if he will redeem himself. "That was a long time ago, but it's wrong what they say about the past, I've learned, about how you can bury it. Because the past claws its way out." (1).

I only started reading but I think the foreshadow in the beginning gives us a clue also when Rahim Kahn tells him, "There is a way to be good again." My first thought was, hmmm, I wonder what he did that was bad? I know that's not deep, but in reference to redemption, we'll see if there is a way for him to be good again.

There is a saying "the road to hell is paved with good intentions." It's there going to be a redeeming thing for our character? Is it going to be a fable or a novel?
...of course there going to be a redeeming thing in the end its a novel and i think kue may be right about the irony part.
