Ursula K. Le Guin Quotes
Realism Is For Lazy-minded, Semi-educated People Whose Atrophied Imagination Allows Them To Appreciate Only The Most Limited And Convention Subject Matter. Re-Fi Is A Repetitive Genre Written By Unimaginative Hacks Who Rely On Mere Mimesis. If They Had Any Self-respect They'd Be Writing Memoir, But They're Too Lazy To Fact-check. Of Course I Never Read Re-Fi. But The Kids Keep Bringing Home These Garish Realistic Novels And Talking About Them, So I Know That It's An Incredibly Narrow Genre, Completely Centered On One Species, Full Of Worn-out Cliches And Predictable Situations--the Quest For The Father, Mother-bashing, Obsessive Male Lust, Dysfunctional Suburban Families, Etc., Etc. All It's Good For Is Being Made Into Mass-market Movies. Given Its Old-fashioned Means And Limited Subject Matter, Realism Is Quite Incapable Of Describing The Complexity Of Contemporary Experience.
