Surfacing and The Secret Life of Bees focus on remote relationships between a daughter and her
parents, it is the daughters searching for their past, that leads them to mask a feeling of alienation
from others. ... "(Atwood154) As these relationships never get on the right
track, it is reasoned that their alienation from others is the cause. Lilys distant relationship with
her parents may not be fully caused from alienation, but is still similar to the Narrators in many ways. ...

the same alienation from others as a child and a teenager. ...
Leading the two daughters to mask a feeling of alienation from others is due to them
