Magical Realism · 1978
Obsidian Mirror · a novel
Reading atmosphere: cinematic, classic, hopeful — best with unhurried attention.
Synopsis
A reader arrives for plot and stays for the silences between chapters.
Editorial recommendation
Zinds recommends Obsidian Mirror · a novel when you want prose that feels edited for a single lamp. Lina Dalton uses restraint as drama—what is withheld matters as much as what arrives on page one. The 1978 context shapes how the book argues with its decade.
Emotional register: cinematic, classic, hopeful, intimate · Magical Realism.
