Some theorists believe that one of the distinguishing features of literature is  special, or unusual, use of language.
After selecting elements from raw material(words, syntax, punctuation), aim to combine these elements into a new portion of reality wich exist only within the text.
Literature is a parallel world.
The role of the reader is an active, dynamic, indeed it contributes to make the meaning of the text.
