Literatúra faktu sa teší veľkej obľube už od konca druhej svetovej vojny. V širšom slova zmysle označuje širokú škálu nefiktívnej literatúry, ktorá využíva biografické, reportážne, cestopisné, memoárové a denníkové prvky. Má obrovský význam pre kultúru, keďže sú v nej príťažlivo spracované udalosti dejinných a súčasných vedeckých materiálov. Najslávnejšími autormi sú napr. E. von Däniken, L. Souček či V. Zamarovský. Ak ste fanúšikom tejto literatúry a okrem čítania sa radi dozvedáte množstvo zaujímavostí, kníhkupectvách zoženiete rôzne knihy, ktoré si vás určite získajú.
