Conflicting interest
The book Please Ignore Vera Dietz contains many examples of the literary element : conflict .
Conflict is in between multiple characters but mostly between Vera and some other character . "Is it ok to hate a dead kid? Even if I loved him once? Even if he was my best friend? Is it okay to hate him for being dead? In this quote Vera has a conflict with Charlie post-humous. In my opinion conflict is the important part of a novel. Conflict adds excitement to a novel.

I agree. Without conflict, it's really difficult to keep the story moving. It really is the important in a novel because if there aren't any conflicts, nothing really new or different occurs in a character's life, and if there aren't any changes, then the story tends to get pretty boring or "stay in the same spot".
