The odd circumstance under which Maya and Bailey Angelou were sent to their paternal grandmother was the divorce of their parents.

Which sentence from Cristina Garcia’s Dreaming in Cuban is an example of magic realism?
Serga [27]

Answer: Abuela Celia and I write to each other sometimes, but mostly I hear her speaking to me at night just before I fall asleep

Explanation: Magic realism is a literary genre or style of writing associated especially with Latin America that incorporates fantastic or mythical elements into otherwise realistic fiction. It is also sometimes called fabulism, in reference to the conventions of fables, myths, and allegory incorporated within the writing.

Dreaming in Cuban is the first novel written by author Cristina García, and was a finalist for the National Book Award. This novel moves between Cuba and the United States featuring three generations of a single family. The novel focuses particularly on the women; Celia del Pino, her daughters Lourdes and Felicia, and her granddaughter Pilar. The novel is not told in linear fashion but moves between characters, places and times.

The sentence above, which is an example of magic realism, is by Pilar, referring to hearing her grandmother Celia.
