Mario Vargas Llosa turns up in many Web cites as a magical-realism author, but I guess that itself is an example of magical realism ;-) I see that MVL himself rejects the label, i.e.: "The--now shopworn--label of 'magical realism' ... has never fitted Vargas Llosa, who disavows the adjective. 'I have an invincible weakness for so-called realism,' he remarks in [his memoir] A Fish in the Water."
