Self-growth of a Wetland Girl - Ecological Perspectives on Where The Crawdads Sing

Shuning Zhou

Abstract


Owens novel Where The Crawdads Sing tells the story of a girl named Kya, who grows up alone in the wetlands. The pain of family and love runs through Kyas growing-up process, but fortunately, the healing of nature and the courage of her self-awakening and resistance help Kya to break her shackles. The modern civilisation brings Kya harm, while the natural civilisation helps Kya to get rid of the
pain, and eventually, Kya combines the advantages of both civilisations to gain physical and mental independence and freedom.
