| − | "Vindicated" tells the narrator's story. Her life is one of conflict. At first she is hopeful, right after her marriage. In her youthful exuberance she is different then how she is later in her life. Once she figures out how hard life it, she is different. Life looks good right after marriage, but then everything changes when reality sets in. Her life "dangles on a string;" it's ready to tear at any moment. Never does her life remain stable; even in a small rural village her life is volatile, perhaps even more so then in modern American society. Is her life vindicated, or worth something in the end?

| − | Although the narrator has never heard of an automobile, her life is a journey, even though she rarely traveled. Life has it's up and downs, and rough spots. But overall it is a positive experience. It brings people together and closer, as her trials and tribulations only brought her closer to her husband. Sometimes for a short bit they fought, but it was soon made up. When she journeys to the city, her life takes a dramatic change. The city turned out to be a wrong turn in the highway of life, but in the end she manages to survive. The book ends as she is back with her family at home happy.

| − | | + | |
| − | This instrumental track from India tells the story which the narrator travels. It starts out with her marriage, a magical time full of hope and promise. As with all Indian celebrations, the oldest is lavishly spoiled while the last in the family has nothing. Married life starts out slow, with only a daughter for the first few years. But all of a sudden, it takes off. Year after year, another son is born. Then her life is up and down. From a rich harvest to drought and famine, the narrator's life is very dynamic. Toward the end of her life she is forced off her land into the crowded city. But soon she returns safe and sound. Overall, the energy of this score mirrors the narrator's life.

| − | This is how Nathan and the narrator feel when they are forced off of their land where they lived and farmed for over 30 years. They decide to go to one of their sons who lives far away in a city. Once they arrive they are mislead many times, the items they were carrying where stolen, and they find out their son left his wife years ago. This pushes the narrator and her husband very close to the breaking point, as they where in a foreign place with no money, no friends, and no place to stay.

| − | Every memory and confession pouring out of your soul
| + | |

| − | These words from the song apply to the narrator and her daughter, Ira. Ira becomes a prostitute in order to earn direly needed money to feed the family. The parents are stunned that Ira would turn to this profession, but they do not push it onto her. They feel that if anyone happens to find out about Ira's new job, their family will be shunned and disrespected in the public eye. Thus they are forced to "lie" about Ira's profession.

| − | ====The Reason====
| + | |
| − | by: Hoobastank
| + | |
| − | <pre>
| + | |
| − | I'm not a perfect person
| + | |
| − | There's many things I wish I didn't do
| + | |
| − | But I continue learning
| + | |
| − | I never meant to do those things to you
| + | |
| − | And so I have to say before I go
| + | |
| − | That I just want you to know
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I've found a reason for me
| + | |
| − | To change who I used to be
| + | |
| − | A reason to start over new
| + | |
| − | and the reason is you
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I'm sorry that I hurt you
| + | |
| − | It's something I must live with everyday
| + | |
| − | And all the pain I put you through
| + | |
| − | I wish that I could take it all away
| + | |
| − | And be the one who catches all your tears
| + | |
| − | That's why I need you to hear
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I've found a reason for me
| + | |
| − | To change who I used to be
| + | |
| − | A reason to start over new
| + | |
| − | and the reason is you (x4)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I'm not a perfect person
| + | |
| − | I never meant to do those things to you
| + | |
| − | And so I have to say before I go
| + | |
| − | That I just want you to know
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I've found a reason for me
| + | |
| − | To change who I used to be
| + | |
| − | A reason to start over new
| + | |
| − | and the reason is you
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I've found a reason to show
| + | |
| − | A side of me you didn't know
| + | |
| − | A reason for all that I do
| + | |
| − | And the reason is you
| + | |
| − | </pre>
| + | |
| − | I chose to use the song “The Reason” by Hoobastank because it relates to the part in <u>Nectar in a Sieve</u> where the narrator goes back into their home to see Ira, since she savagely attacked her. The narrator thinks that she is someone else because it is dark out and she can only see her back. Afterwards, she is very ashamed of what she did. In the song it says:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | ''I'm sorry that I hurt you'' | + | |
| − | ''it's something I must live with everyday''
| + | |
| − | ''and all the pain I put you through''
| + | |
| − | ''I wish that I could take it all away''
| + | |
| − | ''and be the one who catches all your tears''
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | This stanza basically shows what the narrator was saying and thinking after she attacked Ira, and went into see her. She obviously felt very bad after she did this and the mood of the song is also very soothing and mournful sounding and this is another reason why I used this song.

| − | Rukmani, the narrator, is Nathan's, her husband's, wonderwall. She is there whenever he needs her. When times are great, Rukmani is there but she is also right next to him when the times are rough. Nobody knows Nathan like her husband does. Together, they had a rough life, like a winding road, but they stick together, like a brick wall. They also know from the first moment they met that their relationship was going to be hard, but they kept with it, even when Rukmani found out about her husband's infidelity. When it was revealed to her, she did not make such a big deal about it. When they first met, Nathan wanted everything for Rukmani, he wanted to say that he would always care for here, but he did not know how to say the words. Instead, he proved this by building her a house with his bare hands and protecting her however he could. Rukmani also saved him from his dispair many times and filled him with reason. After all, she's his wonderwall.

| + | |
| − | "Bad Day" represents the life of the two main characters in Nectar in a Sieve. In the song David Powter talks about how everybody's blue sky turn gray. This is especially true when the two get married. At first their life seems great, like a blue sky. However, seven children later, they hit hard times. One line in the song mentions how one's life has been gray, exactly the way their lives are when they are kicked off their farm. The songs talks about how one can try to hide their misfortunes and bad luck. This is what the couple chooses to do. As Kenny, the doctor, said, she does not cry out for help when she needs it the most. She just sits there and accepts it.

| − | The song was chosen to represent the doctor, Kenny. Kenny travels all around the world, trying to spread the word about the needs and problems of the poor Indians. He collects donations by telling their stories in order to build the hospital which they need desperately. Kenny has gone through a lot in order to help the narrator and her town. His dedication actually causes his wife and children to leave him because they do not see him enough. "When the walls fall down" represents the trouble which Kenny went through to build the hospital. It took him seven years of prodding the hospital forward to get it done. Many hardships including falling walls set him back.
