Can you give some examples of 'first world novel'?

One example is 'To Kill a Mockingbird'. Scout Finch has her first awakenings about racism, justice, and the complexity of human nature through the trial of Tom Robinson. Another is 'The Great Gatsby'. Nick Carraway experiences an awakening regarding the emptiness of the wealthy upper class and the illusions of the American Dream.

Honestly, I'm not familiar with a particular 'the first word novel'. There are so many great novels out there. However, some novels start in a very unique way. For instance, 'It was the best of times, it was the worst of times' from 'A Tale of Two Cities'. But this may not be what is meant by 'the first word novel' as the term is rather unclear.

One example could be 'The First Men in the Moon' by H.G. Wells. It tells the story of the first men to journey to the moon, exploring their experiences on this uncharted celestial body.

Yes. 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' can be considered in a way. It's set in a fictional town, but it reflects many real - world elements such as family dynamics, political power struggles, and the passage of time in a very real - world - like way. Also, 'Pride and Prejudice' is set in the real - world society of early 19th - century England, showing the social norms, class differences, and the relationship between men and women at that time.

One example could be 'Alice in Wonderland' to some extent. The rules of the normal world don't apply there, and things are quite reversed. For instance, animals can talk and behave like humans, which is a reversal of the natural order in our world.

Sure. F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'This Side of Paradise' was his first fiction work. It was a significant step in his writing career. Also, Emily Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights' was her first and only novel. These first fictions often give us insights into the authors' early creativity and the themes they were interested in exploring at the start of their careers.

Sure. 'Call me Ishmael.' from 'Moby - Dick' is a very famous first line. It's simple yet makes the reader curious about who Ishmael is and what his story will be.

Sure. 'To Kill a Mockingbird' is an example. The trial of Tom Robinson is a major first turning point. It changes the perspective of Scout and Jem, and the whole town is divided. It sets in motion a series of events that expose the deep - seated racism in the community. Another one is '1984'. Winston's decision to start writing in his diary is a first turning point. It's an act of rebellion in the highly - controlled society he lives in, and from there, his journey of resistance against the totalitarian regime begins.

It's hard to name novels directly titled 'Post American World Novel'. But consider works like Cormac McCarthy's 'The Road'. While not directly about the US losing global dominance, it shows a world in ruins where the old order, which was in large part US - influenced, is gone. Also, some dystopian novels that show a breakdown of global systems might be relevant. In these stories, the US may not be the center of power anymore. There could also be some novels that focus on the rise of emerging economies and how they change the global balance of power, which is a key aspect of the 'Post American World Novel' concept.
