Literary Fiction

Literary fiction is a category of novels that prioritize character development, style, and thematic depth over a plot-driven narrative. This genre is often focusing on exploring the human condition through complex characters and intricate language. Unlike a formulaic storyline like genre fiction; it is considered more of an art form than pure entertainment.

Realistic literary fiction encompasses biographies and stories where the character grows up. Experimental literary fiction is a mix of multiple genres. It often mixes novels, poetry, and visual art to create one work. Philosophical Literary Fiction dives into the deeper meaning of life’s larger questions.
