Men’s romantic fiction

Filed Under Uncategorized | 

Men’s romantic fiction refers to any fictional portrayal of romantic love either in film, text, or other media and is usually either told from the male protagonist’s point of view or taking particular interest in the romance as viewed from a male perspective.

Although generally concerning heterosexual relationships, men’s romantic fiction also includes gay romantic fiction, romance dealing with love between men.

For example, the novels Belinda by Anne Rice and Northern Lights by Nora Roberts are both told from the male protagonist’s point of view. Other novelists such as Nicholas Sparks who wrote A Walk to Remember and The Notebook usually write from the male perspective, foregrounded by typical prefaces and diary entries at the beginning of the story.

The genre of lad lit also has somewhat similar connotations.
