> people are mad about: that her work of fiction is mostly fictional

It's mostly fictional but apparently it comes across as true to many people on first glance. There is also a real world person which apparently many readers see an obvious link to. Regardless of how it all looks to you, surely you can appreciate how such a situation could give rise to a negative viewpoint?

I think it says something bad about contemporary writing that "comes accross as true" is exceptional.
