| Abstract | ||
| Abstract A Fact is known to be true, and truth is the reality of something which can be easily proved. Facts are ubiquitous in this massive world that any can figure them out as they are based on evidences, while Fiction is the prose writing that tells an imaginary story. Events and characters might be invented or might be based on real events and characters. The Empire Of The Sun is regarded as one of the finest war novels ever written. A semi-autobiographical novel by J.G. Ballard, it was published in 1984, and it quickly became a critical and commercial success. The writer recorded the semi-autobiographical experiences of an eleven-year-old British boy named Jim living in China during the Second World War. This paper tries to figure and outline the events of this novel from the opening till the ending in order to distinguish the fictionalized events from those which are absolutely right. And the conclusion will sum up the findings of the study. | ||
