Explanation:

Realism in literature is part of the realist movement that begun in the 19th century and extended to the early 20th century. This movement attempts to represent familiar events, characters or things just the way they are, so authors usually depict everyday, normal activities, protagonists and experiences, instead of using far-fetched constructions or romanticized stories.
