Hypertonic

What is Hypertonic?


1.

pertaining to literary narrations that exhibit vomitous superfluity

Hypertonic fiction is magical realism gone wrong: it is when (post-Satanic Verses) Rushdie, in trying to achieve Marquez, bloats magic/metaphor to a point where a reader's "suspended disbelief" droops into profound mistrust.
