In what type of writing are the characters and setting often exaggerated?

  1. Realism

  2. Fantasy

  3. Gothic

  4. Romance

The correct answer is: Fantasy

In realism, the focus is on accurately depicting the world as it is and characters are portrayed realistically. Gothic writing typically features dark and mysterious elements, while romance writing centers on relationships and often has a happy ending. Fantasy writing, on the other hand, often involves exaggerated and fantastical settings and characters, making it the best answer for the question.
