Abstract

This research paper examines how Colombian author Gabriel Garcia Márquez employs magic realism in his writings. This essay will look at the literary representations of reality and dreams in the twenty-first century. He used this strategy to create a plausible scenario that is influenced by Columbian culture in the book One Hundred Years of Solitude. The author wants to raise issues about the absurdity of life and encourage self-actualization. The mythical settlement of Macondo is situated in a realistic environment with some fantastic aspects. This study demonstrates how magic realism psychoanalysis may address some of the most challenging and important subjects in literature.
