What are some examples of fiction?

Well, novels like 'Harry Potter' and 'The Lord of the Rings' are classic examples of fiction. They take you to magical and fantastical worlds.

One example is 'The Princess Bride'. The main story of the book is a fictional adventure, but within it, there are stories that the characters tell each other which are also fictional. For instance, the story of Westley's heroic deeds as told by Buttercup is a fictional account within the larger fictional narrative.

An example is 'Gormenghast' by Mervyn Peake. It's set in a strange, decaying castle with a highly detailed and idiosyncratic world - building. The story and characters are often quite complex and not as well - known as more mainstream works. Also, the works of Angela Carter, like 'The Bloody Chamber', while not entirely obscure, have elements of the strange and off - beat that can put them in the realm of obscure fiction for some readers.

In the realm of literary fiction, 'Moby - Dick' is an iconic work that explores complex themes like obsession. As for commercial fiction, 'The Hunger Games' is a great example with its exciting and action - packed plot. When it comes to science fiction, 'Brave New World' is a well - known work that speculates about a future society. In fantasy fiction, 'A Song of Ice and Fire' stands out with its detailed world - building, including dragons, knights, and political intrigue.

One example of disturbing fiction is 'American Psycho' by Bret Easton Ellis. It contains extremely violent and disturbing descriptions of a serial killer's actions. Another is 'The Road' by Cormac McCarthy, which shows a post - apocalyptic world filled with despair and inhumane situations. And 'A Clockwork Orange' by Anthony Burgess also has disturbing scenes of violence and the dehumanization of its characters.

Well, 'Atlantis' related stories can be considered antediluvian fiction. The legend of Atlantis, a highly advanced but lost civilization, often places it in a time before a great flood. There are many fictional retellings of this story, exploring what that civilization might have been like, its technology, culture, and how it was ultimately destroyed by the flood. Also, some Native American flood myths when fictionalized can fall into this category, like the story of Manabozho in some tribes' lore, which has elements of a pre - flood world and the events that led to the flood.

Well, 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland' is a beloved piece of fiction. The strange and wonderful world that Lewis Carroll created, full of talking animals and absurd situations, has fascinated readers, especially children, for a long time. 'The Great Gatsby' by F. Scott Fitzgerald is another. It explores themes of wealth, love, and the American Dream in a beautifully written story. And 'Anne of Green Gables' is much - loved for its endearing protagonist and the idyllic setting of Prince Edward Island.

Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson are also friends in fiction. Watson is Holmes' loyal companion, helping him in his detective work, and they share a unique bond in solving complex mysteries.

One example of best fiction is 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen. It's a classic that explores themes of love, class, and society in a very engaging way. The characters are well - developed and the story is full of wit.

One example is 'The Satanic Verses' by Salman Rushdie. It sparked intense controversy due to its perceived blasphemy in some religious communities. Another is 'Lolita' by Vladimir Nabokov. The subject matter of an older man's obsession with a young girl is highly controversial. Also, 'A Clockwork Orange' by Anthony Burgess with its extreme violence and dark themes is considered controversial.
