Conflict is the struggle which grows out of two opposing forces, whether the
             forces being man versus man, man verses himself, man verses nature, man
             versus fate, or man versus society. Good examples of conflict can be found
             in almost any book. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott is full of all types of
             Little Women is a book about four sisters, Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy,
             who live with their mother during the time of the Civil War, which their
             father is out fighting. The first example of conflict used in Little Women is
