Abstract
dc:description.abstract<p>This project includes 10 stories, some of which contain related characters, and many of which make use of various devices and tropes of the magic realist tradition. It’s important to note that all of my stories express an attitude toward reality that is in keeping with Magical Realism: the attitude that reality contains elements of magic—and that this is not really remarkable or odd. Magical Realism, as these stories serve to demonstrate, is fundamentally a realistic tradition, albeit one that includes elements of the mystical, mythical, fantastic, grotesque, or just plain weird—and those elements are presented as innate, as part of reality. </p>
