Neo-realism in literature

Neo-realism in literature is a movement that emerged in the mid-20th century, focusing on depicting everyday life with honesty and authenticity. It emphasizes portraying ordinary people and their real-world struggles, avoiding romanticized or idealized portrayals. The style often involves straightforward language and detailed descriptions to reflect social realities accurately. Neo-realism aims to give readers an authentic insight into society, highlighting issues like poverty, injustice, and human resilience, often inspired by post-war social changes and a desire for truthful storytelling.
