Art vs. Entertainment
Although these things can be one in the same, I believe books are divided by their focus. Some authors (especially those writing in the literary genre) write for the art of writing. Their books are filled with symbols and are nuanced/deep/etc.
This is a group for people who care about the entertainment. People who care about the story itself, and are not worried with symbols or themes or literary elements. Examples I would point to would be the Zamonia books by Walter Moers or James Rollins' Sigma Force books. These are pure stories. While there may be morals/symbols/etc. in the book, it is plain that the author's main goal was to entertain.
To sum up, this is a group for those of us who write to entertain, not for those of us who write for the Nobel Prize. |
