Characteristics of the Fantasy Genre in Modern English Literature

Abstract

Today, many educators and parents complain that we, modern teenagers, do not read fiction, replacing this fascinating process with reading fashionable youth magazines. Yes, we read little, haphazardly, we read what is fashionable, first, what has been filmed and caused a resonance in society. According to sociological research, every fifth book read today by teenagers is written in the fantasy genre. Moreover, of course, young men show the greatest interest in fantasy.
