Po prostu?

George BuLah (X)
: bo zgrabniejsze w użyciu dla podanego kontekstu, chociaż wykłuła się też polska nazwa gatunku - po prostu - "angst" - co pewnie będzie niuansem w sensie akademickiego odróżniania od dreszczowca - thrillera ;)

Tylko propozycja, żeby istotnie zakwalifikować ten zwrot w celu odróżnienia at a glance od pojęć: "thriller", "horror", etc.
Można też chyba śmiało zastosować po prostu "angst" - ... "czytuję angsty", ale zbyt duże wciąż odniesienie do pozaliterackiej twórczości.

Reference:
Angsty
The word angst, meaning neurotic fear, anxiety, guilt or remorse comes from German, but has been used in English since the 1940s. It comes from the same root as the word anger, and was originally popularised in English through translations of the work of psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud.
The word has more recently adapted however, and now teenagers are much more likely to talk about feeling angsty. When they complain about not being understood by anyone, or that they are alone in the world, they are feeling angsty. When they insist that you could never know how terrible it feels to them, how the whole world wants to destroy them, they do it because they are feeling angsty. An angsty person feels completely unloved, unwanted, disrespected, ignored.
Some cruel people might suggest that those who feel angsty are just looking for attention. But these people don’t understand us. And they never will!

Note from asker:
czyli "lubi czytać literaturę angsty"? - to brzmi dziwnie... |
Przepraszam za początkową reakcję - o "angsty" właśnie chodzi, stwierdzam po bliższym zapoznaniu się z tematem, po prostu wogóle nie znałam tego terminu dziekuję |
Something went wrong...
