As an entirety Genesis is a mix of genres and themes that are intelligently woven together, it features, antediluvian, creation, patriarchal narrative, poems and genealogies.

Cause that would mean people would have to read up on material that is not all that exciting. The Deuteronomist is very fascinating and I have done enough reading to know what's going on. I personally subscribe to the supplementary or Whybray/Miller form of the Deuteronomist formation not one author (Richard Elliott Friedman) or the two Deuteronomist Dtr1 Dtr2 (Frank Moore Cross).
