"Of Mice and Men", novel, John Steinbeck, 1937:

It is not really about conflict, except the conflict between expectations and ultimate eventualities.

Of course, on personal levels, there are these conflicts:

  • Differences of personality and priorities between Lennie and his best friend George.
  • The incongruity of behaviour of the newly married but flirtatious wife of Curley.
  • The inappropriateness of Curley's habitual journeying into the hotspots of town without his new and very attractive wife.
  • The cultural shunning of 'colored people' in contrast with the fact that the only colored person in the story is actually liked by all the other people in the story.
  • The conflicts that George must have grappled with before eventually deciding to shoot his friend Lennie.
