Tom Wolfe: Fiction today sucks



Noted author Tom Wolfe, on the state of fiction in an interview with Time Magazine:
"There's so little of it now that it's pathetic, and it's pathetic all over. Writers come from master of fine arts programs now. If you add up the college education of Steinbeck, Hemingway and Faulkner, you get to spring break of freshman year."
Harsh. Do you agree?
