Answer:
The author, Karen Russell, uses the central conflict to convey her message about identity in the story “ST Lucy’s Home for Girls Raised by Wolves”. The girls in the story are girls who were raised by wolves and have to learn how to be human. The conflict is between the girls and the staff at the home, who are trying to teach the girls how to be human and the girls who want to stay wolf. The conflict is used to show how the girls are trying to find their identity and how they are torn between two worlds. The girls ultimately choose to stay wolf, which shows that they are comfortable with their identity and do not want to change.
