Question on Brother Man book

Conflict which occurs in Brother Man are:

Minette and Papacita-(external) Papacita use to trouble and flirt with Minette even though he knew she lived with Brother Man.

Brother Man and Brother Ambo-(external) Brother Ambo wanted Brother Mna to hold some obeah stuff for him and because Brother Man refuge he developed hatred to him.

Papciter and Girlie-(external  and internal) Papacita was abusive to Girlie and he lied to her constantly.

Cordila-(internal) When she was sick Brother Man help her to get better, so when Brother Man couldn't helped her with her son, she went to Brother Ambo to work obeah and  because she was stressed out she turned crazy.

2. Internal conflict- is a mental or emotional struggle that occurs within a character.
       External conflict- is a struggle that occurs between a character  and the outside forces which could be another character in the environment.
3. Three types of irony are:
Situation Irony- is when a person acts as if they are ignorant toward something or someone in order to picture the weak points of another position.

Dramatic Irony- is the process when a person who reads or viewers  are attentive or something that the characters in the story are not.

Verbal Irony-contrast between what is said and what is meant.

4.  In  Brother Man irony is played out in  many ways eg.
Girlie and Papacita. Papacita do things to girlia and hurt her feeling that go on like what he is doing is something normal.

Dear Editor,
         It is my greatest interest to inform you of the beating of the Rastafarian John Power known as Brother Man two days ago.
      To my understanding it was a terrible thing to do, seeing someone on the road and beating them up because of some misunderstanding doesn't give someone to lay they hands on them. It draws my attention to bring forward this situation because i find it very disturbing to know that Brother Man was a well respectful, holy man that tries his best to help others, and for people in the village to be so arrogant to lay there hands on him. Do you think that scorning someone of a different region is right? Not because other people share different belief from someone else doesn't gives them the audacity to beat them up to the extent that they are badly hurt. Not to mention the state they leaved him in, and after that they didn't even show a bit of concern for what they did.
       The people in the village should understand that "you should love your neighbor as yourself''' , they should be good to other people , not take advantage of them. We should all live in peace, love and harmony, be kind and good to other especially the people who is good to you.


                                                                                            Yours Truly
