Read the excerpt from lizzie bright and the buckminster boy.
and that was when turner suddenly knew that he was late for dinner, that reverend buckminster would be figuring that he'd fallen into some rocky chasm or drowned in the sea, or worse yet, that he'd come up with some other way to embarrass the new minister. and he figured that when he showed up alive after all, his father would stand on the porch and look at him in a way that said turner would never be the kind of son he had hoped for—it would be as loud as if he had just announced it from the pulpit.
turner is in conflict with his father because
turner does not want to become a minister.
the reverend is always critical of him.
turner does not like to explore on his own.
the reverend yells at him from the pulpit.
