In Salon this morning, Jean Hanff Korelitz takes two pages to tell us that she's discovered plot, alas the piece goes no further than that. What about the challenges of saying something original within a genre? Gets little more than a sentence. How about using plot to expose character? If her fiction is as flat as her essay this is all I'll read of her.
