520    This book analyses the dual alienations of a coastal group
       rural men, the Murik of Papua New Guinea. David Lipset 
       argues that Murik men engage in a Bakhtinian dialogue: 
       voicing their alienation from both their own, indigenous 
       masculinity, as well as from the postcolonial modernity in
       which they find themselves adrift. Lipset analyses young 
       men's elusive expressions of desire in courtship 
       narratives, marijuana discourse, and mobile phone usein 
       which generational tensions play out together with their 
       disaffection from the state. He also borrows from Lacanian
       psychoanalysis in discussing how men's dialogue of dual 
       alienation appears in folk theater, in material 
       substitutionsmost notably, in the replacement of outrigger
       canoes by fiberglass boatsas well as in rising sea-levels,
       and the looming possibility of resettlement. .
