REALISTIC FICTION IS FICTION THAT ISN’T NECESSARILY BASED ON REALITY, HOWEVER, IT IS SO DETAILED, DESCRIPTIVE, AND LIFELIKE, THAT IT MAY SEEM TO BE. 11THE CHARACTERS, PROBLEMS, CONFLICTS AND IMAGES IN THE BOOK SEEM SO REAL THAT IT’S ALMOST AS IF YOU CAN IMAGINE THE STORY TAKING PLACE AT SOME POINT IN YOUR LIFE.FOR EXAMPLE . . . BUT, HOPEFULLY NOT . . .
