In \u003ci\u003eWittgenstein Fiction\u003c\/i\u003e, Zupp offers comprehensive biographical cross-sections of novels by Thomas Bernhard, Bruce Duffy and Lars Iyer in an attempt to define the genre of Wittgenstein Fiction for the very first time. He argues that \u003ci\u003eWittgenstein Fiction \u003c\/i\u003esatirizes the empirical world and the contemporary university, and that authors who work in this genre have to re-create themselves, to some extent, in the form of their fictional Wittgenstein characters, so that fictional biographies of Wittgenstein become strange autobiographies of the authors themselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWalker Zupp\u003c\/b\u003e is a Bermudian writer with an MA in Creative Writing from Lancaster University.
