New Genre - Time Running Out

Pete McMartin from the Vancouver Sun, October 10, 2005 talks about a new genre in literature "for those who feel they haven't lived enough, done enough, seen enough". He seems to feel that it's about "the feel of death's breath", and "our appetite to consume". He's talking about baby boomers, of course.



I disagree. I feel it's about the joy of looking forward to unstructured time. It's about having some fun. I feel it's very positive - about people now getting back to their roots and going for what they wanted to do but never did, or about being open to possibilities. How great is that?



What do you think?
