I always feel like babbling about UK Le Guin and a few others like Margaret
Atwood (The Blind Assasin), AS Byatt (Possession), Ian McEwan (Atonement),
Gregory Maguire (Wicked) (Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister). They all made
use of secondary world, or classics world/reference such as Browning and
Austen and Dickens and "Adventures in OZ", therefore sparkled a nostalgic
atmosphere and exotic beauty. And through such luring illusionary media they
touched on reality and spirituality.
