Can someone me find a magical realism story to compare and contrast "the nose" by nikolai gogol to? i choose “the rememberer” by aimee bender but i don't think it works. also, *you do not have to or need to write an essay*

Hi, I suggest you compare them by the magic elements in the story and how they impact the protagonist's point of view as well as the truth behind these elements. My suggestion is life of Pi, because it is a very popular and famous movie that has a novel

Explanation:

Magic realism is a very praised genre among literature. The biggest authors I can recall are Haruki Murakami and Gabriel Garcia Marquez, however, I wouldn't recommend their stories in this case because they can include adult-only topics or material. However, I advise you to read Murakami once you turn 18. It is wonderful. In this case, I recommend you life of Pi which is a movie and has also a novel. Magic realism is the genre that narrates a story that takes place in the real world adding fantastic or magic elements. You can use the life of pi characters representation in the form of animals, by their personal characteristics and status. Also, the way the protagonist programs himself to see them as animals to make the story less crude and that he does it like that to survive and not fall in despair.  

from the excerpt from the "the dark game" the reader can infer that folke cronholm was spying for the allied nations.
