The Turn of the Screw by Henry James is a great example of a reflective story. So much of the plot reflects the actual truth back to the audience, even though it is far too horrible to accept, much the same way it reflects back for the main character.
It reflects a truth that may not be visible, but is definitely meant to be noted.

I believe it's when you take an event, a personal experience, or a memory of someone's and you reflect upon it throughout your writing of the occurence. So..it could be something like your 5th birthday and while youre writing about it..you can be thorwing things about how it effected your life forever because you met someone really important and if you hadn't given them a chance to be your friend..you wouldn't be here today because they saved your life...or something..idk..sorry, it was a bad example but I hope you get the point!

House of Sand and Fog by Andre Dubus III - really made me think about my relationships with people and the prejudices/misunderstandings that I bring to them.
