Exploring the evolution of the novel, Paul Dawson examines the interplay between fictionality and realist literature, challenging the notion that the genre is in decline. He argues that the novel inherently anticipates its own demise, a theme evident in postmodern metafiction. By analyzing works from early novels to contemporary autofiction, Dawson redefines key elements of realism and their significance in conveying fictional truth. This examination sheds light on the novel's relevance in today's post-truth digital landscape, where traditional notions of referentiality are increasingly questioned.
