Answer Details
The fictional prose that is neither a novel nor a short story is called a novella. A novella is a work of fiction that is longer than a short story but shorter than a novel. It usually has a more focused plot and character development than a short story, but it's not as complex as a novel. Novellas often explore a single theme or idea in-depth, and they can be read in one sitting. Examples of famous novellas include "Heart of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad, "Of Mice and Men" by John Steinbeck, and "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka.
