Transgressive fiction is a genre of literature that focuses on characters who feel confined by the norms and expectations of society and who break free of those confines in unusual or illicit ways.
Therefore, realistic fiction means fiction that is realistic or lifelike. Fiction that is lifelike is fiction that seems real and believable; as though it could happen. And that is exactly what readers are paying us for. They are paying us for an experience -- a lifelike emotional and intellectual experience.
