    I can't wait for this series in June. My introduction to Magical Realism was through Amos Tutuola's Palm-Wine Drinkard. I like how the drinkard's body has vague outlines and undergoes shapeshifting thereby subverting and invading the disciplined and legislated bodily expressivity. This series will be a good study space. See you in June!

      Hi Kwame, Tutuola is definitely an early exponent what I would describe as animist realism, an important precursor to magical realism proper. This is something I am looking forward to exploring in my episode on him. More anon.

    Interesting! I can't wait for June. As a commitment, I would do well to read the ones I haven't read in the list.
    Thank you Prof. I have learnt a lot from these episodes even as an undergrad.
