- Description
- James A. Michener is known for Historical Fiction/Family Sagas. A conversational tone offers accessible - though highly detailed - descriptions of a place and its people, from their past to the narrative present. The literal, physical setting is always central. Plot elements and characters are depicted firmly in that context. Conflicts occur, challenges are met, and endings are usually positive. Characters tend to be broadly-painted "types": sympathetic protagonists with traditional values, with whom readers can easily identify. Michener's array of richly-realized settings famously includes: the South Pacific; outer space; and pre-historic to eighteenth-century Alaska. Start with: Tales of the South Pacific
