Plot and Structure by James Scott Bell
Just thought I'd share this quote. This seems very true and really helped me understand this predicament. Bell uses The Great American Tragedy as an example declaring it the worst written "greatest book" ever. Although its style is unpolished, often lags, and the primary character turns into a horrible person it is compelling book. I also think The Mayor of Casterbridge falls into this category. Anyways...just thought I'd share...

Just so you know I'm finally getting to read your blog, I am! I agree. I think that must be part of what I like about those kinds of books and movies. I look and think, I could be like that apart from God's grace, or, yuck, I AM a bit like that, but God's grace can work in my life to change me!
