Review: A man versus self conflict is one where the character has an internal conflict about a decision he or she made. For example: Omari wishes he didn’t join a gang. Judah hates himself for hurting his brother in the fight. Stephanie wishes she hadn’t given her son up for adoption.
A reader’s response on the Man Versus Self conflicts present in your book. Explain how the character is internally conflicted. What decisions does the character struggle with? What does he or she think should have been done differently? Explain what causes them to make the decision they make.
Graded on a 5-point scale. A 5-point response will have:
Structure: At least 4-paragraphs. Typed or printed neatly. Proper grammar and spelled correctly.
Content: Focuses on several different man versus self conflicts throughout the book. Each conflict is explained in detail as if the reader has not read the book. The response answers the following questions for the conflict: What choices could the character have made? Why did the character make the choice that they did (go deep into their background)? Why do they regret this decision? How could it have turned out differently? What do you think about their decision?
