Prose written to describe, argue, reflect on, record or report the real world rather than to narrate invented events: the essay, memoir, autobiography, biography, journalism, travel writing, nature writing, testimony and critical or scholarly prose. Belongs here: forms such as autobiography, biography, memoir, life writing, the several journalism genres, travel and nature writing, testimonial literature and testimonio, and the general entity Nonfiction Prose itself. Does not belong here: a work that narrates invented events even when it borrows nonfiction technique (a novel or short-fiction form), and a chronologically ordered historical record, placed under historical and chronicle writing instead.
