Why are baby boomer authors' books so bad (e.g., DFW and Jonathan Franzen)? They just whine about having good economic conditions. My favourite generation of writers are the Greatest Generation and, to some extent, the Silent Generation because they probably went through shit in 1939-1945 and remembered what it was like to suffer and live. They were usually the established authors by the 50s and 60s, but sometimes they wrote well until now. What are your favourite generations for lit?
