didn't read it but if rewriting would make it anything other than accessible whore smut with a veneer of sophistication it would be obscure and overlooked naturally, and that's if it gets published

i guess what i'm saying is would the same readers buy another book on the same topic that is written to, say, crichton standards of competence

is good writing accessible to 50 shades' audience? my initial answer to your q was yes, but then i thought of all the other nyt bestseller female fiction trash and it's all garbage, so i think shitty writing may actually be necessary to reach that market.

i mean like, would there be a market for a 50 shades that sits between crichton and khaled hosseini, but not as bad as sue grafton or dan brown or nicholas sparks, and certainly not as bad whoever wrote 50 shades. not art. just not the same kind of trash.

Yes but you need to add some twist to justify its status as a "serious" book. Have it be set in the Lebanese Civil War or something.
