Resumen: El objetivo de este artículo es presentar un análisis sobre el neologismo autoficción. Centraremos la atención en el arraigo del término en el género narrativo y en las dispares opiniones que sobre este han aparecido. Esto nos ayudará, después, a exponer aquellos procedimientos literarios que, creemos, están presentes en las novelas autoficcionales, así como el papel que juega el escritor autoficcional en estas obras, y las formas de lectura y de interpretación con que suelen recibirse entre los lectores. Todo ello con la finalidad de presentar una idea que, si no definitiva y cerrada, sea lo menos ambigua e incierta posible, sobre qué entendemos hoy por autoficción.
Palabras clave: autoficción, realidad, ficción, autobiografía, novela, autor, personaje, lector
Abstract: The aim of this article is to present an analysis of the neologism autofiction. We will focus our attention on its presence in the narrative genre and the different opinions that have been said about it. This first approach will help us later to explain the literary procedures that we believe are present in the autofictional novels, likewise the role that the autofictional writer plays in these works and how the readers receive and interpret them. Thus, all of this leads to an idea that, if not final and closed, is not that uncertain or ambiguous as it was before, about what we understand when we use the word autofiction.
