No subject

[Mark Kohut]

"Changes in  the novel have helped to jack up memoir's audience as fiction
grew more fabulist or dystopic or hyper intellectual under the sway of
Joyce and Woolf and Garcia Marquez and Pynchon acolytes, readers thirsty
for reality began imbibing memoir."   ---Mary Karr, The Art of Memoir 2105

Well, maybe, Mary, partly......

But I, who along with readers and critics' 'lengthy assaults' on memoir,
such as by Wm Gass, Jonathon Yardley and James Wolcott will just add,

Knausgaard and Ferrante have been hugely read as novelists bringing us back
to 'reality'. And the rediscovery of* Stoner* and more and more.
