I think I was just really tired for the end, and it did fall apart. What I meant was; For all the novels that we (any of us) really dig, someone out there can't stand for some reason. The quality that makes a work of literature appealing to one party is its ability to either augment or change their beliefs. Much of contemporary writing will do neither, it is "Nice Writing" in that it doesn't challenge the average reader's moral footing, it merely puts a really tragic story forwards and leaves it to rot.
It was Sweet and Low: The Poisonwood Bible, (Review) by Lee Siegel.
