Marc, YMMV. I have a friend who loves her fiction. For me, I get bored when there's a lot of long emotive passages. I hate a lot of popular literary authors (Toni Morrison springs to mind).

If you like literary fiction, you might really like her fiction.


On another note, I *have* read Strunk & White from beginning to end, several times. But it sounds crazy when I say that.
