| Popis: | Magical realism, specific to Latin American literature, surpasses borders and becomes a technique widely used in various world literatures. Superimposed on the familiar, it lives alongside the elements of everyday life and manifests itself through an ‘alteration’ of the familiar and the daily routine under the intervention of unusual events which cannot be explained by ‘realistic’ patterns. In the novels “The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World” and “The Hidden Life of Colours” by Laura Imai Messina, both having Japan as a background, we discover fictional universes achieved through the technique of magical realism, but also of the “hallucinatory” realism surprised by Andrei Ionescu to the Latin-American writer Rao Bastos. Thus, if in “The Phone Booth at the Edge of the World”, the delirious vision and the sensation of strangeness created by a cruel reality, one can talk about this second type of realism, “Viețile secrete ale culorilor”, in “The Hidden Life of Colours” the perception of the world through colour makes us identify magical realism as a writing technique. The balance between individual forms of reality is achieved through love. |
