Pushing Boundaries: Best Transgressive Fiction - Page 2

Disturbing, often challenging literature, the focus is on characters who feel confined by the norms and expectations of society and who break free of those confines in unusual and/or illicit ways. Rebelling against the basic norms of society, the protagonists of transgressive fiction may seem mentally ill, anti-social, or nihilistic.
