What is your favourite Magic Realism novel?Answer

"Magical realism" is a literary style where fantastical or magical elements are presented as normal parts of an otherwise realistic world, often used to explore deeper themes about human life and society. For example, characters might have supernatural abilities, or unnamed deities intervene in human affairs, or the ordinary laws of physics don't always apply.
