Conflict In The Outsiders
Clash of Society
S.E. Hinton, the author of The Outsiders has written many unique conflicts in her book. One of many conflicts in the story are the Socs (the rich playboys) versus the Greasers (the lowlife hoodlums), with the problem being that one is rich and the other being poor. The second accessible one to spot in the book would be Darry (older brother of Ponyboy) and Ponyboy (the main character), just can’t understand each other, they're so different. The third battle is a little difficult to understand which is Ponyboy versus himself, in which he can’t admit the truth. Let's begin with the most common known rivalry in this book, the Scos versus the Greasers.

He first had to run away because they had killed a Soc and now he lost his best friend who weren’t like the rest and can understand how Pony felt. “ I half convinced myself that I had dreamed everything that had happened the night before. I’m really home in bed, I thought ” (Pg. 68), and “Johnny was dead. But he wasn’t.” (Pg. 150). Both these quotes prove that Pony is trying to convince himself to believe that he is still home after they had kill Bob and had gone to Windrixville, and after Johnny had died in the hospital after the rumble, that he was still alive smoking in the lot or something. By the end of the book his struggle to believe the truth is resolved. This is a big conflict because he is the main character and that is fighting with his own decisions and isn't able to handle the truth so he twist them around so he won’t feel depressed, or lonely.
The Outsiders written by S.E. Hinton has presented many notable conflicts with extraordinary detail. The most easily spotted war are the Socs and Greasers. The most loving rough brother and the brother who never uses his head are having a very complex in the relationship in the book, they just don’t understand each other. Ponyboy just hates being a
Greasers, because people are always blaming them, and he gets jumped by the Socs, which isn’t really fun. These are some of the extraordinary conflicts written by S.E. Hinton
