Yeah. I know. I haven't read much fantasy, to be honest, so I was just trying to suss out whether you thought the books you were thinking of would fit in well with those sort of widely accepted as magical realism--or if there's something that quintessentially sets them apart. Sorry. I didn't mean to give a lecture series. I just get overexcited when I get to talk about post-colonialism. Also, it should be noted that I work in the publishing industry--so I have sort of an ingrained sense of trust of their labels that probably is unfounded. I should probably question it more--I just haven't read enough fantasy to really do it well, I think.

And yes! Sherman Alexie! ♥
