There is a real connection between Philosopy and fiction.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think one of the paradoxes of writing fiction is when people enjoy it, they want it to be real. So they look for connections.
The difference between fiction and reality? Fiction has to make sense.
Fiction connects: past and present; the great and the small; the surface with the depths. Fiction brings out the innermost, invisible springs of life that cannot be revealed in factual narratives.
I think fiction is a very serious thing, that while it is fiction, it is also a revelation of truth, or facts.
Fiction is the truth inside the lie.
Fiction is socially meaningful.
Most fiction comes from your experience.
I think fiction, for me, is a way of trying to understand why people do the things they do - and trying to explain what is, at heart, illogical.
Fiction is the best way I know how to think something through.
Basically, fiction is people. You can't write fiction about ideas.
