On Minimalist Fiction

In John Barth's "Minimalist Ficton" he discusses what minimalist fiction is & preaches less is more.I found it a bit ironic how the piece is about minimalist but it included so much extra information in parentheses.Ernest Hemingway's quote gave life to the whole piece and simplified it.He basically described how being concise in writing allows readers to understand the piece better & feel closer to it.This piece allowed me to appreciate minimalist just as much as non-minimalist.
