I thought magical realism was when you're a not-white author wanting to talk about how banally intrusive Capitalism is in everyday life, but you don't want your book to be review bombed by :lmayo: for being "tOo pOliTiCaL" so you turn it into a metaphor that your characters just have to deal with, because that's how it is in real life?
I dunno my woke SJW Postmodern Neo-Marxists College Professors forced me to read Toni Morrison's "Beloved" and now the force-ghost of Jordan Peterson is haunting me.

which book are you referencing here
I'm shitposting, but Beloved is kinda about that. Although racism rather than capitalism, I guess.
