         <title>&quot;Grenade&quot; and Hassan</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>     This song perfectly represents Hassan's level of loyalty to Amir, who does not return the same loyalty.  Hassan is loyal enough that he would do anything Amir asks him to do, including an absurd, hypothetical request of eating dirt.  However, Amir does not return the same loyalty. Two later examples make this entirely clear. Hassan sacrifices his body so that he can keep the kite that Amir will take home to Baba, in order to win Baba's favor. Much later in Hassan's life, he sacrifices himself to protect Amir's house. Rahim Khan recounts the story, "They told Hassan they would be moving in to supposedly keep it safe until I return. Hassan protested again. So they took him into the street...and order him to kneel...and shot him in the back of the head" (Hosseini 219). Hassan gave up his life in order to preserve the house for Amir and his family.  Bruno Mars' song "Grenade" follows a similar pattern to Hassan and Amir.  The speaker in the song has demonstrated his loyalty in numerous ways.  He demonstrates that he is more invested in the relationship than she is because he would sacrifice his life for her in any way necessary, even to the point that he would "Take a bullet straight through [his] brain,/ Yeah [he] would die for [her], but [she] won't do the same" (Mars).  The man's loyalty is tested to the point of sacrificing his life for this woman he loves.  But the woman he loves is not making commensurate sacrifices.  The difference is that this man is expressing his frustration and disappointment, but Hassan was loyal to the very end of his life, without even a murmur of resentment towards Amir.  Still, both texts demonstrate an unequal sense of loyalty between the two individuals.  </div>]]></description>
