What is an "encyclopedic novel"?
An encyclopedic novel is a type of book that covers a vast range of topics or includes a broad and detailed exploration of themes, characters, and settings. This genre often aims to provide an extensive and thorough representation of its subject matter, much like an encyclopedia. Encyclopedic novels typically incorporate a wealth of information, sometimes integrating elements from various disciplines or cultural references, and are known for their complex structure and depth.
