What makes South!, a memoir by Ernest Shackleton, fall under the nonfiction genre?

English
1 answer:
Yuki888 [10]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer is letter B) The story is based on the narrator's real-life experiences.

Explanation:

A nonfiction literary work contains true or factual information, information that has not been "made up". It is supposed to be truthful and accurate. Fiction, on the other hand, even though related to reality to some extent, offers imaginary (made up) information.

A memoir and an autobiography are examples of nonfiction literary work. The difference between them is that an autobiography focuses on telling facts about the author's life in a chronological sequence, from the moment of birth until the present. A memoir does not necessarily present the author's whole life, since birth. It may focus on a specific period. It also has a more artistic perspective, focusing rather on the author's feelings and interpretation of his/her own experiences. The memoir "South!" is a nonfiction literary work since it narrates Shackleton's real-life expedition to Antarctica that lasted from 1914 till 1917.
