    The Native Coast

    The Native Coast is a story of a search for identity.


    The rather inarticulate attempt of Michael Linder to
    shape for himself a personal identification with the
    world that would give ultimate meaning to his life is
    paralleled by Marina's own search: for Marina is
    partly tribal, and although her life and training are
    steeped in Western (American) culture, she is
    haunted by the influence of her Ifuago mother, who
    had lived and died in her native hills without once
    coming down to the lowlands.
