Magical realism is my nomination for a literary trend.
Changed my mind: steampunk.
Bestselling airport/beach pop fiction! :reddevil:
Gothic Literature
Please vote for the trends you would like to read in 2014. You can pick more than one.
Just currious what is Dark Romanticism?
I'm curious: What's the difference between naturalism and realism?
This website gives a good overview of the differences between the two:

I've gone for Magical Realism, Existentialism, Postmodernism and Beat. It'll be interesting to see what we get.
ooh, multiple choice-- what a lucky break! Even so, I narrowed it down to two categories, postmodernism and magic realism. (There is overlapping between the two categories.
Now, I only hope that when the specific novels are announced in the upcoming months, "my" library has copies.
I didn't expect Magic Realism to prove so popular!
And Calidore, it seems like we will be reading an airport bestseller, after all! :p
Realism
No votes for stream of consciousness? I can't vote otherwise I would add this.
How can I become able to vote?
Seems like Lost Generation, Beat Generation, Stream of Consciousness and Angry Young Men are not very popular.
The winners:
Magical Realism
Steampunk
Bestselling airport/beach pop fiction
Gothic Literature
Postmodernism
Postcolonialism
Naturalism
Realism
Victorian Era
Romanticism
Existentialism
Dark Romanticism
Sounds interesting, especially Steampunk, and Bestselling airport/beach pop fiction!
