rolanniSome While Back, I read an interview, it may have been, with an author who writes adult post-apocalyptic SF and also YA post-apocalyptic SF.
The single comment that stuck with me from this interview was that the author worked to make sure the YA work had a happy ending, because young readers deserved hope.
The implicit statement -- I don't remember at this remove if it was explicit -- being that adult readers don't deserve a happy ending.
Discuss.
