Line 41:
* [[Kurt Vonnegut]]'s ''[[Hocus Pocus]]'' is [[Literary Agent Hypothesis|presented as]] the collection of hundreds of varying scraps of paper written on by the protagonist, Vance Hartke, while he was in prison.
* ''[[Dangerous Liaisons]]'' consists of letters written by 10 or so people to each other.
* ''[[Rant|Rant: An Oral Biography of Buster Casey]]'' by [[Chuck Palahniuk]] consists entirely of fake interviews (one of the last chapters includes material from a few ''actual people,'' and also a completely unexpected [[Shout-Out]] to ''[[Fight Club (novel)|Fight Club]]''). For added verisimilitude, {{spoiler|it's implied at one point that the events of the book might alter the timeline so that the universe becomes the "real world" and the book becomes a work of fiction.}} It's also loosely implied that the book itself was written by that world's Chuck Palahniuk (nighttimer).
* The ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' book ''Xenology'' is essentially a collection of journal entries by a puritanical Inquisitor investigating a site where a radical Inquisitor was conducting studies on various aliens. Also included are journal entries from the resident Magos Biologis, as well as various documents, audio records, and observations complied by both Inquisitors.
** Games Workshop did this previously for ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]'' with ''Liber Chaotica'' and ''The Loathsome Ratmen And All Their Foul Kin'' The latter was previously introduced in the ''[[Gotrek and Felix]]'' series, and the handwritten notes added into the Real Life version suggest that it's based on the very copy that appears in the novel.
