“In Paradise, there are no stories, because there are no journeys. It’s loss and regret and misery and yearning that drive the story forward, along its twisted road.” Margaret Atwood

-Human history can be seen as a history of conflict that takes many shapes and forms. Conflict can be defined as the incompatibility between the material, psychological and ideological needs, interests and values of a person or a group with those of another. Conflict dynamics allude to the attitudes, perceptions and elements that shape the course of conflicts, including identity issues, feelings, lack of communication, and contentious politics. Those conflicts are best conveyed, negotiated and at times resolved through narrative. Literary and cultural products convey all kinds of conflict dynamics, whether in the form of power struggles or resolution strategies.
