Fine foods required skilled preparation and are valued by many people. Not your average cook can pull together a dish of fine foods. It takes a special chef that has a great amount of artistic ability. They must be able to see food and it’s creation as a form of art and be able to creatively express their deas through their dishes. This can relate to artistic literature in that it requires the writer to have the ability to express their creativity through their work. Like fine foods, artistic literature can also be presented in many different forms. It is not suppressed by a certain criteria or standard. Also like fine food, artistic literature can have a different impact on different people. One person may experience one emotion while he or she reads while another person may experience a completely different feeling.
Artistic literature should be read actively with an open mind. The reader should allow themselves to enter into a state of vulnerability as they read the particular text. Most fine foods that we encounter are not something you would eat on an average day, or even care to at that. If there were a burger and quail in front of you, you would probably choose the burger just because you’re more familiar with the taste. Trying the quail would require you to step out of your comfort zone and take a risk to experience something new. Artistic literature is set apart from other forms of literature and should be read with a creative and risk taking approach.
