Avant-Garde Literature refers to innovative and experimental writing that challenges traditional forms and conventions. It often seeks to push boundaries, exploring new ideas, styles, and techniques. This movement emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, influenced by various artistic movements such as Surrealism and Dadaism. Writers associated with Avant-Garde Literature, like James Joyce and Virginia Woolf, often employ unconventional narrative structures and fragmented plots. Their works may include stream-of-consciousness techniques and non-linear timelines, aiming to provoke thought and engage readers in unique ways. This literature encourages exploration and redefinition of what storytelling can be.
