While not normally called postmodern, I'm a big Raymond Carver fan and his style is postmodern. What We Talk About When We Talk About Love is one of the best books ever written. I love his sparse sentences and I actually try to write academic works in a Carver-esque manner. :blush:

A lot of his minimalism was due to his editor outright cutting whole chunks out of his stories you know. Later on Carver was not as hot on the whole idea.

It's a postmodern novel that got popular so goons hate it.

Actually its just terrible and I am mad that I was tricked into reading it. Goons are the number one champions of it though so I do not know where you getting that from.
