Sample Answer
I tend to gravitate towards literary fiction, as it often delves into the intricacies of the human experience, evoking a profound emotional response. Authors like Virginia Woolf and Kazuo Ishiguro employ rich, nuanced prose that challenges my intellect while simultaneously offering insights into the human condition. Additionally, I find that reading non-fiction, particularly biographies, allows me to gain a deeper understanding of historical contexts and diverse perspectives. This genre not only informs but also inspires, as it frequently showcases the resilience and creativity of individuals who have overcome significant adversities. Ultimately, my preference for these genres stems from a desire not just to escape reality, but to engage with it thoughtfully, fostering personal growth and a broader worldview.
