FICTION
  • Fiction is any creative work (chiefly, any
    narrative work) consisting of people, events, or
    places that are imaginaryin other words, not
    based strictly on history or fact.123 In
    its most narrow usage, fiction refers to written
    narratives in prose and often specifically
    novels,45 though also novellas and short
    stories. More broadly, fiction has come to
    encompass imaginary narratives expressed in any
    medium, including not just writings but also live
    theatrical performances, films, television
    programs, radio dramas, comics, role-playing
    games, and video games.

FICTIONAL BOOKS
  • fictional book is a text created specifically for
    a work in an imaginary narrative that is referred
    to, depicted, or excerpted in a story, book,
    film, or other fictional work, and which exists
    only in one or more fictional works. A fictional
    book may be created to add realism or depth to a
    larger fictional work. For example, George
    Orwell's novel Nineteen Eighty-Four has excerpts
    from a book by Emmanuel Goldstein entitled The
    Theory and Practice of Oligarchical Collectivism
    which provides background on concepts explored in
    the novel (both the named author (Goldstein) and
    the text on collectivism are made up by Orwell).

EXAMPLES
  • The Necronomicon in H. P. Lovecraft's books
    serves as a repository of recondite and evil
    knowledge in many of his works and the work of
    others. Despite the evident tongue-in-cheek
    origin of the book, supposedly written by the
    "Mad Arab Abdul al-Hazred," who was supposed to
    have died by being torn apart by an invisible
    being in an Arab marketplace in broad daylight,
    many have been led to believe that the book is
    real.
  • William Goldman's The Princess Bride is presented
    as an abridgment of The Princess Bride by "S.
    Morgenstern".EXAMPLES

EXAMPLES
  • The story of Philip K. Dick's The Man in the High
    Castle revolves around another mysterious and
    forbidden book, written by the title character
    (Hawthorne Abendsen), named The Grasshopper Lies
    Heavy. Dick's book describes an alternate history
    where the Axis Powers were victorious in World
    War II and the United States has been divided
    between Japan and Nazi Germany. The
    book-within-a-book is an alternate history
    itself, depicting a world in which the Allies won
    the war but which is nonetheless different from
    our own world in several important respects.
    Towards the end of the story, Abendsen admits to
    writing The Grasshopper Lies Heavy under the
    direction of the I Ching (which influenced The
    Man in the High Castle as well).
  • All of the stories in Robert W. Chambers' 1895
    collection The King in Yellow feature a fictional
    play of the same name, which drives all readers
    mad and/or shows them another reality. Very
    little of the play is transcribed in the stories,
    although it is shown to be set in the kingdom of
    Carcosa, created by Ambrose Bierce.
