Post modernism was first coined in 1940 to identify a reaction
against the modern architecture.it was considered as a new way
of viewing literature.
Post modern writers through their works asked for the
cooperation of the reader to create a meaning for the work, to
be active and give his or her own interpretation about the text
.which means that post modern works do not depict life but it is
about literature itself ,about art, a separation between
literature and life. Many techniques were used by post modern
writers like : irony, playfulness, black humor, intertextuality ,
metafiction , historiographical metafiction ,magical realism ...
