I haven't really discussed literature yet, so why not begin with one of the first novels about literature. The thing I love most about The Quixote is the fact that we lose Don Quixote eventually. Other characters come in to tell their stories; therefore, it is set up that Don Quixote's world (Spain) will change (it must), but the stories will continue.

In Jorge Luis Borges's essay "Partial Magic in the Quixote," he recognizes that the reader has become fiction because the papers they read are fictitious, real accounts.
