Excellent post, @josemalavem, as we are used to! Personally, of the authors you have named here, I am lover of Gustave Flaubert and his very famous Madame Bovary, so full of realism that I can even feel the boredom and disappointments of Emma. Many are the critics who put Flaubert as one of the greatest representatives of realism, others in a nascent naturalism and more, in both. In a certain way one could say that Flaubert is the main exponent of the transition from realism to naturalism, movements that could be considered not completely independent of each other.
But like Flaubert, I also like Chekhov, Dickens, Eliot. I particularly like realistic literature, although I know and value the role of the avant-garde and experimental lines that have emerged in recent years and that serve to destabilize the value of reality. Unfortunately, although I don't know if this is the word, in our literature realism can be assumed as customs and even Creoleism. Perhaps the problem of some of our writers is not to write, but to perceive reality. Thank you very much for this text and @adsactly for sharing.
