In my
mind it has to be at least parallel to what actually happened in order for me
to think that it would still be considered non-fiction. As long as they remain
close to the truth that’s fine. But it doesn’t
really matter what I think because I don’t really read non-fiction.
As long
as the overall point of the book is still in perspective then if he bends the
truth its fine as long as he does not break the truth.
It does because then how will you know if you can rely on
something.
I see your point because we should value a book more for its story or meaning rather than whether or not it is 100% true
ReplyDeleteI agree, the half true statement needs to bind the book together.
