Abstract

In Surfacing, the narrator’s journey of returning to her hometown to search for her missing father also symbolizes a journey to search for and rediscover her self-identity in nature. This journey follows the same pattern as Campbell’s The Hero with a Thousands Faces: separation, initiation and return.
