One characteristic is the blurring of boundaries. In post modern fiction, the distinction between high and low culture is often muddled. For example, it might combine elements of pop culture with more 'highbrow' literary devices. Another is the use of fragmented narratives. Instead of a traditional linear story, post modern works may jump around in time and space, presenting the story in bits and pieces. Also, self - reflexivity is common. The text may draw attention to its own fictionality, like a character in the story commenting on the fact that they are in a story.
