Why Millennials Still Don’t Have a Generation Defining Novel
105Why Millennials Still Don’t Have a Generation Defining Novel
Why hasn’t the millennial generation produced a defining novel? While past generations had The Catcher in the Rye, On the Road, and Less Than Zero to capture their collective experiences, millennials—now approaching their late 30s and beyond—are still waiting for the novel that reflects their unique struggles and fragmented realities.
In this video, I explore why no single novel has managed to encapsulate the millennial experience. From delayed adulthood and financial instability to the impact of technology and the constant tension between irony and sincerity, the millennial story is complex and difficult to capture in one narrative. I also discuss whether a generation so shaped by digital culture and fragmented identities can even have a singular, generation-defining book—or if we’re destined to find meaning in a mosaic of voices and mediums instead.
