75 Magic Realism Novels

Magic realism is a genre of narrative fiction that, while encompassing a range of subtly different concepts, expresses a primarily realistic view of the real world while also adding or revealing magical elements. It is sometimes called fabulism, in reference to the conventions of fables, myths, and allegory. It often refers to fiction and literature, with magic or the supernatural presented in an otherwise real-world or mundane setting.
