Happy Sunday! Let's take a road trip through history, humor, hobbies, and more. Welcome to Nonfiction November in which we honor and read a wide variety of categories that are fact based. Or at least we hope so. When I told my husband I was planning on reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, he said it's fiction. I disagreed but when I looked it up, found a variety of opinions and the main consensus is Zen is a fictionalized Autobiography in which the author took creative license with the subject matter. *sigh* And hubby hated it when he read it way back when. Thank you for bursting my bubble. I'll make up my own mind what I think of the story when I read it. A few people who shall remain nameless have fooled me in the past with their fictionalized autobiographies which resulted in me tossing their books across the room in disgust. However, there is literary nonfiction or creative nonfiction which I love to read which uses literary styles and techniques similar to fiction but is actually based on fact to tell a story, rather than a dry tome regurgitating facts.
