the topic of a story should not preclude it from being considered “literature.” science fiction as a genre is a vehicle for discourse on the effects of new ideas and technology on society, which is way more serious business than an english major writing a five hundred page story about an english major getting laid constantly and always being upset about it.
seriously. metaphors are a device, not a plot
