Pomenitul: allohistory?
― no new snail to snell (Ye Mad Puffin), Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:52 (six years ago)
That ones comes close. In French, the term 'exofiction' (fictionalized biography) is an explicit callback to 'autofiction' (fictionalized autobiography), which doesn't have an exact English equivalent either.
― pomenitul, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 20:55 (six years ago)
Oh, we just say "historical fiction" for things that could have happened, but are not being presented as documented fact. Or things that are "based on a true story" but feature invented dialogue and may not have unfolded in exactly the way depicted in the text.
Alternate or alternative history is a different genre - what if Lee had attacked here instead of there, what if FDR had stayed neutral, what if Oswald had come down with a cold, what if Wellington had eaten bad oysters, what if Trump had been smothered in infancy by a deranged babysitter.... (oh wait, that last was pure fantasy)
― no new snail to snell (Ye Mad Puffin), Tuesday, 19 May 2020 21:02 (six years ago)
Exofiction is specifically biographical, which is why I think it applies to the novel under discussion, but it doesn't necessarily play with alternative histories. Perhaps 'counterfactual exofiction' would be a more precise designation.
― pomenitul, Tuesday, 19 May 2020 21:12 (six years ago)
the term is "real person slash"

Thanks, we're getting closer. It seems more disparaging and 'lowbrow' than what exofiction typically covers in French, though. Like, I wouldn't think of describing Jean Echenoz's Ravel as real person slash.

Curtis Sittenfeld is quite a good writer. I'd quite like to read this. Hillary looks very nice on the cover.

I finished the Netflix documentary the other night. I had a habit of watching it late at night, so I'd drift and rewind a lot...As befits the subject, not sure what I thought. The saddest part was post-healthcare, where she looked lost. Watching election night 2016 still feels stunning.
