The main conflict between Kafka and his father in "Letter to His Father" is the perceived emotional distance and authoritarian nature of the father, which Kafka felt had a significant impact on his self-esteem, confidence, and mental well-being. The letter serves as a form of catharsis for Kafka as he attempts to articulate his feelings of inadequacy, resentment, and lack of approval from his father. Their strained relationship is characterized by a deep-seated sense of unmet expectations, disappointment, and unresolved tension.
