“Monkey Beach”
[ send me this paper ]
This 10 page report discusses novels written by
Patricia Grace (“Potiki”) and Eden Robinson (“Monkey Beach”). In
“Potiki,” the reader is able to see one community's response to
attacks on their ancestral values and symbols. In the process,
the relationship between people and the land they live on is
shown to have greater ties than can be imagined by the “typical”
urbanite. Likewise, “Monkey Beach” demonstrates that there are
people whose greater loyalties are more directly related to the
mystical connections that exist for some people in what are most
often dismissed as the ordinary occurrences of daily life. Both
novels explore the idea of the existence of intranations in the
modern world and the ideologies of the residents of those
intranations. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Art is their refuge and, then finally, art provides a means to heal the awful trauma of war and loss. While this theme (or theory) of art is prevalent, Urquhart also uses the medium of her novel to present art as intrinsic to what it means to be human, a medium by which the human soul endeavors to achieve the transcendental.
