Definitions

Writing that resembles fiction but lacks key attributes of fiction; for example, an autobiographical novel

countable, uncountable

Examples

“The film complicates matters by casting Christine Hebert (a sometime underground filmmaker in her own right) as Pizzorno, with Moullet playing himself, thereby juxtaposing pseudofiction with pseudofact in a way that undermines the rhetorical strategies of both, leaving only a sweet, tragicomic pathos as residue.”
