I read this a while back at http://www.sfwa.org/writing/genre2.htm and it raises an interesting problem.
... So-called "literary" novels (I really really hate that term, because it implies that anything not made according to that model is not "literary," i.e., not art and not worthy of the attention paid to art, but we're stuck with the phrase until something better comes along) . . .

So, what should we call these literary novels? Should they be mainstream (aah, but that would imply that most people are buying these, and they're selling at a greater rate than other genres, which I don't think is entirely true)?
Any other ideas?
