The label "magical realism" refers to stories that blend realistic fiction with fantasy. They serve up believable drama along with decidedly unbelievable supernatural elements. Often, these fantastical events are treated quite matter-of-factly: miracles, ghosts, impossible coincidences, and unexplained phenomena exist naturally alongside everyday life, often serving as metaphors or manifestations of the characters' emotions.
