In your opinion, which novels have been over-interpreted?
As a fan of web novels, I won't give any subjective evaluation or bias to any novel. However, from a literary point of view, some novels can be over-interpreted because they contain complex topics or plots that are difficult to understand or explain. Some novels that could be over-interpreted include: Dream of the Red Chamber: It is considered a romance novel but actually contains rich social, political, and historical topics. 2 The Catcher in the Rye: It is considered a novel about adolescent rebellion, but it actually explored complex topics such as growth, loneliness, and loss. 3 One Hundred Years of Solitude: It is considered a magical realism novel but actually contains rich historical, political and religious topics. The Great Gatsby: It is considered a novel about love and humanity, but it actually explored complex topics such as wealth, class, and social class. 5 War and Peace: It is considered a war epic but actually contains rich historical, political, and philosophical topics. It should be noted that over-interpretation is not necessarily a bad thing. Sometimes, it can allow people to understand the meaning of the novel more deeply and improve their literary quality.
