The Absolutely True Diary of A Part-Time Indian


Author’s note: I am writing this to show a conflict in the book The Absolutely True Diary of A Part-Time Indian and 2 ways I think it could be resolved.

One major conflict in my novel is that Junior, who is a Indian and also the main character, has to adjust to his new school, and being the new kid and the only Indian in a school of white people, that is going to be really hard especially because all the jock won’t leave him alone. One resolution his grandmother comes up with is that if he just straight up punches the leader he will gain more respect in the school. On resolution I thought of is that he could become invisible so that they wouldn’t have any reason to bully him. Another solution I thought of would be to try to make friends with a lot of different people so that at least he would gain some respect between the jocks. This conflict is mostly a person vs. society stand point.
