A JOURNEY BETWEEN THE REAL WORLD AND THE REALM OF DREAMS. AN ANALYSIS OF NAZLI ERAY’S MAGICAL REALIST WORKS AS POSTMODERN GENRE

      Аннотация: Despite the fact that most critics handle magical realism in relation to postcolonialism, as is seen in the examples of Gabriel Garc?a M?rquez, and Salman Rushdie for instance; Nazl? Eray’s works stand at a point where magical realism and postmodernism intersect. Therefore, this study focuses on magical realism in relation to its affinity to postmodernism. In accordance with it, the book includes a textual and technical reading and analysis of the selected texts by Nazl? Eray, namely the two novels called Love Does Not Live Here Any Longer (Do?an Egmont, 2013) and The Mystery of the Frej Apartment (Everest Publishing, 2018). That means the real and the magical are dealt with in relation to their connections to the ontological properties, rather than their anthropological connections or their relation to extra-textual context. Thus, ontology is privileged over anthropology and text over context.
