[@Olix5000]

I think Piglia's changes some truths to make the story more exciting, dive deeper into characters, and make the plot smoother. The changes mix the author's creativity with real events. If readers are looking for an exact history, they might feel tricked. But many enjoy the mix of real and made-up parts for its creativity and how it pulls them into the story! Whether readers are okay with these changes depends on what they expected and if the author explains their approach to mixing facts with fiction - Gaby Hdez

[@juliamoniz-lecce8259]

Great lecture! I still can't believe they lost the lawsuit. - Julia Moniz-Lecce

[@prathyushs5566]

[@angelmanzo5040]

Oops almost forgot to comment.. but to answer a part of this lecture’s question: I think that with any book that we enjoy or we’ve found has really drawn us into its story would make us feel betrayed to know much of it was invention because it can be a form of escapism. So when reality hits us that none of what we were so invested in was real, it can be a letdown.

[@ludivinecat8108]

very interesting - Ludivine

nice one

[@mayalehman]

I love how the ironically opposite lawsuits were both dismissed ha!

[@inventingromancestudies]

Me, too! :)

[@Shanelle_Danimae_Cuevas]

It's cool how you discussed the idea of fiction and non-fiction! I had thoughts of that too that I explored in my blog. We have to take the story with a grain of salt because it's based on "true events", but how much of it is actually "true"?

[@jonathanjang1412]

What a heavy book...
