    Modernist fiction focused on epistemological questions about how characters can understand their world, while postmodernist fiction explores ontological issues of how that world is constructed through language and discourse. Postmodernist works often draw attention to their status as artifacts and play with conventions of genre and narrative in self-reflexive ways that break down distinctions between fiction and reality.
