Abstract (EN)

Authors on 18th and 19th centuries who prefers ''I'' (fr. récits de je, écriture de soi) were ignored until the 20th century's postmodernism was noticed and seemed valuable.(80's). This new season's most obvious property was the subject's (fr. sujet) return to the text(s). This return will bring out many discourses to the modern writing and cause a new writing technique called as ''Autofiction'' thanks to Prof. Dr. Ali Tilbe. This new technique brings novel-ish features and author's own life story together and puts the subject which is the Author in the center. Although ''Autofiction'' is not a novel or an autobiography but at the same time it has some relativities with both. With this it can be stated: There is a connection between ''Novel, Autobiography and Autofiction'' that is hard to break. Beside this Serge Doubrovsky adds a new subgenre to autofiction by writing down a story he heard from one of his close friends which he defines it as the real novel. (fr. roman vrai). Even though just like autofiction, real novel (fr. roman vrai) lives on the papers, there are still some arguments about it's content. A production, a work that has fiction and reality in one causes discussions and arguments by the authors and reviewers but readers keep reading these kind of books with joy. One of the very important Authors of our time Catherine Cusset published her book ''L'Autre qu'on adorait'' on 2016. At that same year her novel won the Switzerland Goncourt Reward. This novel hasn't been translated to our language (Turkish) yet but it seems clear that both autofiction and real novel plays a big role on literature. Author uses the techniques and ways that this new genre provides and merges with his own techniques and comes out to the surface as a whole new trend to Novel World. ''L'Autre qu'on adorait'' is about short and sad life of the author's close friend. The way that author calls her dead friend as ''You'' shows how postmodernism cares for the language. Author's way of writing put the reader in the novel and reader continues to read with a big excitement. We can easily say that this novel did contribute to the autofiction and real novel genres which are developing. Even though autofiction is accepted by many it needs time and new examples such as this novel to be accepted by everyone. Authors like Catherine Cusset is the leading actresses and actors helping this genre to fit in. On the other hand, readers affect cannot be denied. Our biggest expectation is to see new novels, examples about this new genre and see how our country supporting and helping it to develop.
