About: Xenofictional Literature   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : 134.155.108.49:8890 associated with source dataset(s)

Literary works that take the point of view of normal or intelligent animals, or nonhumanoid aliens, with particular attention to differences in perception or outlook. Keep in mind that Xenofiction is not synonymous with anthropomorphic. If you can replace the non-humans with (maybe superpowered) humans without too much trouble, it's probably not Xenofiction. Beast Fables and works about Funny Animals are, in general, not examples.
