The Ontological Instability of Metafiction

Metafiction: how stories reflect on the process of their own creation functions as a subversive inquiry into the mechanics of narrative. By dismantling the fourth wall, works such as Italo Calvino’s If on a winter’s night a traveler transform the reader into a protagonist, merging the act of consumption with literary production. Similarly, Margaret Atwood’s The Blind Assassin employs nested layers to interrogate the veracity of memory. These self-conscious narratives challenge the traditional boundary between reality and fiction, exposing literature as a curated artifice. Ultimately, metafiction compels an analytical engagement with the text, asserting that the process of creation is the story itself.
