QW #3 Authentic Voice

Writing a book about a struggle of people that you have not been through is definitely difficult to do without offending some people. For example, the help is a lot different than battle royal because of the narrator. The help although negative, has a much more optimistic outlook on the black struggle while battle royal is a much more pessimistic outlook with little hope for the black struggle. The two books leave the reader with completely different feelings and it is because of the way they are written and who narrates it. Writing books must come from authenticity and the help is way less authentic than books such as battle royal and their eyes are watching god.
