This research paper: A 3 page essay that analyzes Margaret Craven's I Heard the Owl Call My Name (1973). This story concerns a young priest, Mark Brian, whom the reader learns immediately has a terminal disease that will kill him within three years. This information is kept from Mark by his Bishop who sends him to his hardest parish, a New Zealand Indian village, so that the young man may learn as much as possible in the short time remaining to him. As this indicates, the story is set up as a hero's journey that presents Mark involved in a quest for self-knowledge and growth. Examination of Craven's novel shows that the author emphasizes this underlying purpose by structuring Mark's story as if it were, itself, a native legend. No additional sources cited.
