Is literature just sugarcoated philosophy?

>>	Anonymous Fri Mar 19 17:15:45 2021 No.17822738 What are some good fiction books that teach you about philosophy without name-dropping any ideas? Like books that work as philosophy for normies. I was thinking Brave New World or Electric Sheep are good ones.
