What is a "metanovel"? What does it have to do with "postmodern novels"?

"Meta-novel" is a novel about novels, which pays attention to the fictional identity of novels and their creative process.

Metafiction is a unique novel form in post-modern novels, which subverts the content form and structure of traditional novels and reflects and deconstructs the novel form and narrative itself. Meta-novels are "novels about novels" in a broad sense. Metanovelists emphasize the fiction of novels and explore the creation of novels in novels. They often have multiple identities, such as narrator and protagonist, and are free to enter and leave their works and comment on their stories. They use nonlinear patchwork techniques to cancel the boundaries between seriousness and triviality, horror and comedy, tragedy and comedy, and play with words to create a novel composed entirely of words. In this way, metafiction shattered the traditional reading expectation and shook the traditional novel concept with its uncertain and subversive narrative mode.

Satisfied answer, hope to adopt.

It's not bad to give a compliment.

Ask questions.

Have a good time
