Serious Fiction, Part Two

administrator sells his soul to the devil to be a college president, hardly has a realistic character in it. Rather they all are type characters like Ben Jonson’s humors characters, who highlight or exaggerate foibles and foolish traits of humanity. In other words, a lot of the fun of fiction is encountering realistic or quasi-realistic characters, whom one may analyze, as one enjoys their adventures and even afterward. But I do not try to push any specific dogma. But here I am approaching a topic for another time.
