    I have just finished reading a story of magical realism The Very Old Man With Enormous Wings: A tale for Children by Gabriel Garcia Marquez.

Although Gabriel Garcia Marquez chose such a basic storyline of a new person comes to town‚ he was able to take it to new places. The story is also written from a third person limited point of view. In class we talked about

    The short story “A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings” by Gabriel García Márquez is a very strange‚ weird and dream like due to the strange characters within the story. I did not like this story and do not know if this story was written as a result of hallucinations induced by drug‚ alcohol or mental illness. Only other thought I had is this story may have a meaning such as tolerance and acceptance for others‚ such as a being with wings that could be an angelic or demonic entity‚ or nothing more
