Who are the opposing forces in the conflict in this

passage?
What type of conflict is it?
Reverend Buckminster licked his lips. "What were you
doing on Malaga Island?"
What could he say? That he had practiced with Lizzie,
dug for clams, and eaten them later in a chowder so good
that he might have given up Eden for it? That he had
spread his arms and flown with the Tripps? That he had
sat quietly by the water's edge and dreamed dreams?
That he had found a place that was more home than
home?
- Lizzie Bright and the Buckminster Boy,
Gary D. Schmidt
How is the conflict related to the setting?

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't think we know enough to be connect this to a setting. We can make only one observation: that the boy is being interogated by what sounds like this father, and the father is not really very happy.

The boy seems to have found paradise with Lizzie. We know another fact: that he would give up paradise for another taste of the chowder.

And yet a third fact about flying with the Tripps. But who are they and what has flying got to do with the setting? We don't know. Not from this passage. All we have are these 3 facts.

If you can relatge them, having read most of the story, then that's what you should do.
