Differences

In The Native Literatures Of North America There Aren't Any Novels. Instead, The Major Genre Is Myth. And Myths Are Stories That Are Fundamentally About The World, Not About Human Individuals. A Myth Needn't Include Any Humans At All. If It Does Include Them, They're Usually Minor Characters - Imaginary Humans Sent Out Like Scouts To Report Back On What's Happening In The Mythworld, But Not Central Participants In The Action.
