Assessment
2. How might a realist novel bring about changes in society?
Describe the steps by which this might happen.
THINK ABOUT
• the conditions described in realist novels
• who reads realist novels
• how political change takes place
ANSWER
Possible
Response:
Realist novels often describe unhealthy conditions in factories or
neighborhoods. They also focus on the suffering of workers. Sympathetic
readers might connect the fictional conditions with actual conditions. News
reporters might then investigate. Voters might complain to local politicians,
96
who would introduce legislation.
