I've been writing for a while. I like realist fiction. It seems impossible to write like that. It seems genuinely impossible to just write a compelling story about two people doing fairly normal things. The Bible is easy to read, but Raymond Corver is like magic to me.
How?
How does one turn something mundane into something interesting?

So it's not a work of art, meant to be appreciated aesthetically, but a novelist riffing about philosophy, psychology, sociology, and whatever other field of knowledge he's not qualified to speak on?

What a gigantic waste of time. Why wouldn't I just read the literature of these disciplines than a novel? Any conclusion Celine comes to is crippled by his ignorance. It's like you want to listen to Jim down at the auto shop instead of people who devote their lives to study and knowledge.

I know you're just a pseud with nothing to say about this novel, I just want you to know what people who know art think when we hear you talk.
