/lit/ - Literature

Does anyone else think the world just isnt novel worthy anymore? Theres no soil in which to write a novel anymore
Everything is too complex and too fake, people dont behave like people, the world is too connected but theres little any one person can do, just peasants living as as playthings of fate
Theres no values to get into conflict with one another, no traditional cultures to be depicted, no wild frontiers to be explored
What is left is autofiction, surrealism or dumb fantasyfication/sci fying
That is, either sollipsims or escapism
The face of the world became to ugly to be faced
The craft of using symbolism to get to higher meaning is lost
Its over
