What is literary fiction?
Why would I read a story which sacrifices characterization and interesting conflicts for the sake of themes?
If I were interested in the ideas of identity, collectivism, or any other subjects; why would I not just read scholarly articles?
I see literary fiction as someone just trying to force persuasive essays into a good story. They are lessening the storytelling for the sake of shoehorning in their themes.
Literary fiction is a made up story, now back to /b/ with you
I just wonder why people think a story having minimal plot is somekind of virtue
