What is "contrivance"?

A contrivance is a literary device or plot element that is artificially created or engineered to advance the plot or resolve a conflict. It often refers to a plot twist, solution, or situation that feels overly convenient, forced, or unrealistic. For instance, if a character suddenly discovers a hidden letter that provides crucial information to solve a mystery, and this letter just happens to be in the exact place needed, it might be considered a contrivance. The term is generally used to describe plot devices that seem forced or implausible, rather than arising naturally from the story.
