Magical Realism in World Literature: presented by Richard E. Brown (Faculty in English).

Magical realism is a style of writing that is worldwide and multi-cultural in nature. It is often satirical and ironic, and may have bold socio-political subtexts.  It often interweaves ancient indigenous mythology into its tales. While it is often identified with South and Central American authors, it is by no means limited in its worldwide and highly varied cultural scope.  Many diverse authors cast a magical realism net.
