This article highlights Gabriel García Márquez’s use of magicalrealism in connection to his portrayal of anti-colonial sentiments in hisepic novel One Hundred Years of Solitude (Cien años de soledad, 1967/1970). To study the novel, we define García Márquez’s response to the politicalcondition of Latin America in the backdrop of the postcolonialparadigm. Highlighting that magical realism enables a writer to challengethe authenticity of the so-called objective reality and at the same timeattempts to “write back to the Centre” (Ashcroft, Griffiths, and Tiffin1989, ix), we draw attention to the technique of magical realism as animportant tool employed to register social protest against the lingeringeffects of the process of colonialism. We also address the question asto how the moments of magical realism in the novel overlap with varioushistorical dimensions of Latin America, especially Colombia‘s ability toraise constructs of protest of varying degrees.
