6/10

I got two males wrong and two females wrong.

would have been more honest desu sempai

The exerpts were too short.

There are some novels which come off as more feminine, surely, and this is sometimes an easier indicator that the novel might have been written by a woman. There is some quality in The Passion According to G.H. that, every time I read it, I get a distinctive womanly voice that is just removed from a masculine conception of how women think in general (and this is not a bad thing, it's a fantastic novel partly because it gets its voice so right and is an interesting psychological nosedive as well).

Then there are other books like The Greenlanders by Jane Smiley where there is no fucking way someone would be able to tell in a blind reading that the prose was written by a woman, namely because it also gets its voice so right and utterly removes itself from gendered perspective for a story that plays into the scheme of historical sagas (this too, is good).

A great writer knows when a gendered voice will work or not, and knows how to use it. Writers who are not great don't, and thus it might be easier to read off where the authorial voice comes through rather than a character's or story's.

I mean what you're speaking about here really is a far wider reaching question of whether it is ever truly possible to escape oneself in writing. That the biography of the writer wont always be intrinsically present in the work they produce.

Not that anything you said is incorrect but I think at the same time a sufficiently deep analysis of a work will always come back to the author even if the voice they create itself manages to be authentically seperate from them the very intention to provide such a voice and the material surrounding it are still of the author.

7/10 here.

mystery solved.

people who follow abstractions tend to live up the characteristics of those abstractions and then the abtractions themselves are no longer meaningless since they now manifest themselves in the material world
