This mode doesn’t follow a unique standard including even Science-fiction, Gothic and Magic Realism in one work. Since then, twenty years later after his revelation about Slipstream the mode hasn’t become a literary genre yet and littles has been discussed about the present subject. However, there are several questions and suppositions about what it could really be Slipstream and its characteristics to achieve the literary genre title.
