Which do you prefer? Lurid, fruity prose, awash in imagery and sensuous textures and colors? Or straight-forward, clean, simple prose?
I prefer the straight-forward, clean simple prose. I don't want the distractions. I'm after more of how the story turned out. I can't deny it I've read some books with all the "lurid, fruity prose, awash in imagery and sensuous textures and colors" but I end up not reading it until the last pages. I just lose interest in it.
As I've said before, it all really goes down to the one reading. He or she can read anything that suits his or her fancy. We always have the last say in choosing what we want to read. :-)
