[quote=Anonymous]I would also say structure. Genre fiction has standard plot structures (happily ever after for romance, murderer discovered and apprehended for mystery, Bildungsroman for fantasy, etc) that are either followed or engaged with. Literary fiction can be whatever it wants to be — sometimes this is great but sometimes it’s terrible.[/quote]
