Read the excerpt from The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. To cast in my lot with Jekyll, was to die to those appetites
which I had long secretly indulged and had of late begun to pamper. To cast it in with Hyde, was to die to a thousand interests and aspirations, and to become, at a blow and forever, despised and friendless. What is the conflict in this excerpt?
Answer: Dr. Jekyll is torn between the two sides of his identity
Explanation:
The conflict in this excerpt is that Dr. Jekyll is torn between the two sides of his identity.
In this case, if he casted his lot with Jekyll, then he was going to forget about the appetites that he had secretly indulged and on the other hand, if he casted it in with Hyde, he was going to die to a thousand interests and aspirations, and become despised and friendless.
