The New Era of Social Commentary
We've had satire, we've had allegory. What's needed now are books that aren't like anything at all. "You mean magical realism?" That's just what cowards call fantasy. "You mean LitRPG?" No. Getting better at things is far too realistic. "You mean books where the character motivations don't really make any sense, and you think at first it's just to serve the plot, but there doesn't really seem to be much of a plot?" That's right. Complete literary decadence. Once we're bored with that, we can think about writing good books again.
