The 2004 issue of The Journal of Experimental Fiction called “The Literary Terrorism of Harold Jaffe”[4] was devoted to his writings.
Jaffe is well known for his technique of docufiction, a literary form that treats and fictionalizes news reports and other published data to expose their philosophical underpinnings, ambiguities, nuances, and hidden agendas. In addition to Docufiction,[5] both Guerilla Writing[6] and Unsituated Dialogue were literary terms Jaffe created.[7][circular reference].
