>More than within the novel, Edward C. Riley places this type of narration within the genre of "romance", some of whose characteristics are:

>1) Romance is usually a love story.
>2) It is closer to the myth than the novel.
>3) The characters are psychological simplifications.
>4) Time and place are not determined too much by empirical criteria.
>5) The description of external details is often abundant, rich and sensual, the verbal style is usually somewhat elevated.
>6) Romance is usually very fashionable of its time, composed according to the sensitivity of the century.

>These features, plus what was pointed out by Francisco López Estrada (a combination of prose and verse that develops a pastoral intrigue, where love is an essential theme, without forgetting the presence of other aspects such as the courtly world, humanistic touches, presented from experience itself or from the imagined invention) are what make up the genre.

a realistic deconstrution of the locus amoenus, this is what Cervantes did 300 years ago in La Galatea but specificall with the pastorela romance of the renaissance, also this is more a short story cycle than a novel
