Escapist fiction, is the more interesting choice out of the two; Interpretive Litterature, or Escpaist Fiction.
Escapist is just more interesting, and personaly grabs my attention more.
Escapist fiction puts the reader though situations, and makes them feel like there somewhere, or someone else. I feel things when i read those types of novels, i want things to happen, for example when Bella and Edward in Twilight went to the medow, to hang out, the author described the medow so discriptivly, that i felt like i was there also. Another egzample is also from Twilight, where Edward and Bella always almost kissed..they would be really close, and it never happened for a long time, as a reader it kinda drove me crazy, and when they did i was pumped on life! "Atta boy Edward"
In my opinion, i think we should be reading more novels along the lines of Escapist Fiction, like a book like Twilight, or the book we're reading right now, "Leslies Journal", i dont know much examples of Interpretive Litterature, but i got told that "Lord of the flies" is that, and i extremely loathed that novel, so i wouldnt ever say i want people to read those kind of novels, so if your reading this, stay away from those books. In the topic of "Cultural Litteracy" i think all books could have that, its a good idea to have in books, because it makes you think about a overal theme of the book, beside the obvious, for example i thought the "Lord of the Flies" could be about sociaty, and the fact that its bassicly completly going down hill.
