"Stories meant for escapism tend to stick to a "good guy wins" outcome; this sort of pop fiction is meant for those who want to evade the emptiness. But the unhappy ending is trying to fill rather than avoid that emptiness. This task requires looking straight into the void. The unhappy ending also provides a sense of honesty and connection with readers. To acknowledge the unspoken pain of the reader and bear witness to the shallow isolation of mainstream life lets readers know they are not alone."
