I wonder if writers believe their writing seem more literary--think Raymond Carver, et al--when in fact all they risk is bewildering readers by not grounding scenes with details of setting. The problem worsens when multiple scenes are depicted in a shorter piece. The reader has no sense of the geographic locale of the dialogue and feels like they are on a hallucinatory trip with only scraps of disembodied speech.
