[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]45F here and I actually thought I'd written this thread because I posted something similar last month. I think some of it is just wanting to read to escape. But I also think that what's being lauded as top literary fiction is a bunch of try hards who care more about playing with the form than good stories and good writing. I genuinely think that what we're being told are the best books just aren't the best books.[/quote] 46 here and I have come to this conclusion, or at least pondered this. I want engrossing fiction, not engrossing form.[/quote] 51 and 100%. Tell me a good story, don’t just wank over your own stylistic cleverness. Telling a good story is harder.[/quote] +1 pp and same to all including age! [/quote]
