| الرواية الديستوبية | Definition: الكتابة الديستوبية تخلق حالتها الخاصة انطلاقا من منظورها واستنادا على وقائع ما، ولا تعنى بخلق حالة عامة من الحيادية مع القارئ. كما أنها لا ترجو القبول بقدر ما تعنى بالكشف. أما عن النبرة التي قد تعلو في مواضع وتخفت في أخرى، أو ترقّ حينا، فكل ذلك مرتبط بإيقاعات النص واحتياجاته، لا برغبات القارئ وأرضيته الثقافية أو تراكماته النفسية. |
