Is a novel a work of nonfiction?

It could be either. You'd have to give me more details to determine for sure.

It's hard to say without more details. Fiction usually involves creative storytelling and invented elements, while nonfiction presents real-world information and events. But sometimes, there can be a blur between the two, especially in certain genres like memoirs or historical fiction.

I'm not entirely sure which specific 'no name woman' is being referred to. It could be either. There are many works where characters are unnamed and can be part of fictional stories, like in some short stories or novels where the author wants to create a sense of mystery.

One way to tell is by the author's intent. If they aim to present real information or experiences, it's nonfiction. If they're creating an imaginative world or story, it's fiction.

The fact that it is a memoir makes it nonfiction. Jeannette Walls writes about her family, from her father's unfulfilled dreams to her mother's refusal to conform to society's norms.

The events and characters are based on her real - life encounters, and she is sharing her own story, which is what defines it as nonfiction.

Thomas Paine's works are nonfiction. He was known for his political and philosophical writings that presented real ideas and arguments.

It depends. Sometimes the poet X writes fiction, and sometimes nonfiction. It varies from piece to piece.
