Answer:

Building identity, coming of age, with an abusive religious zealot, makes up the main conflict in the story. Kambili and Jaja both come of age in Purple Hibiscus as a result of their experiences. The book opens with Jaja rebelling against his devout Catholic father by skipping communion on Palm Sunday, an important religious holiday.
