In reality, complexities of human life is always a mysterious dimension to us. However, they can’t be well explained by conventional rationalist mind. Human existence is based on the legendary virtual real criteria which was brought into literature by writers. In our opinion, the fact that writers built characters of myths has made two goals reflected in novels. The first is to open up the capacity of acquiring knowledge about mysteries in humans. The second is the desire to integrate into a simple life.
