This document discusses several ways that fiction can be complex, including through complicated or unexpected story structures, unclear communication, different perspectives than the reader's, and dense subjects. It notes that fiction can vary from what readers expect in terms of format, structure, text features, sentence structures, number of characters, plot development and flashbacks, and types of conflicts between characters, characters and nature, characters and society, and within characters themselves. Keeping track of all these complex elements in some stories can be challenging.
