Charles Baxter says a story can show real feeling without becoming sentimental if the writer is honest and clear. He notes that literature is not a race with winners and losers, and that taboo topics often hide behind polite conversation. He also observes that intelligence does not guarantee kindness, and that love between men and women follows different patterns.
