👉 Aside biology refers to a literary device where a character within a narrative interrupts the main dialogue or action to provide additional information, often from their own perspective or through internal monologue. This technique allows authors to reveal backstory, explain motivations, or offer insights that might not be immediately apparent to the reader or other characters. Asides can take various forms, such as a character thinking aloud, making a comment that seems tangential but holds deeper meaning, or even a brief monologue. Unlike direct exposition, which is explicitly stated by an author, asides feel more organic and natural within the story, enhancing character development and plot understanding without disrupting the flow of the narrative.
