The relationship between fiction and reality is blurred. We are forced to acknowledge that what we are reading is not reality yet at the same time it feels like reality because the author is addressing us the reader.
Metafiction focuses on the construction of meaning not the representation of meaning, this shows us how the text we are reading is constructed, we are made fully aware that we are being manipulated by the media; we are ourselves both controlled and constructed just as the novel is.
