Long Answer
1. A frame narrative is one in which a narrator recounts a story of the past from the story’s present. In this case, it refers to the scenes in the café in Lahore in which Changez recounts his experiences in America to the stranger. Hamid uses it as a framing device to explain how Changez came to be back in Lahore and to bring the past and present together. (Chapters 1-3)
2. Students could take two paths in answering this question. They could discuss how Changez had everything going for him in the United States but the country’s reaction to him after 9/11 ultimately made it untenable for him to live there.
