Abstract

Magical realism is a genre that specifically discusses realist and magical forms. One form of real and magical that can be associated with text narratives is sexuality. This is because sexuality is a part of life that is unconsciously divided into magical and real things. The theory used in this research is the five characteristics of Wendy B. Faris’ magical realism and the material object of this research is the novel Mustika Zakar Celeng by Adia Puja. The method used in this research is a narrative method. The results of this research show that forms of magical realism are clearly visible, especially in sexuality. In this novel, five characteristics of magical realism are found in the form of sexuality. The results show that in an irreducible element, the influence of magic on Tobor’s sexuality is reinforced by reality. Apart from that, the merging realm occurs when the wild boar’s scrotum penetrates into the character’s soul and increases sexual vitality. Unsettling doubt is also found when readers underestimate Tobor’s vitality. In the disruption of time, space and identity, it was discovered that Tobor experienced disturbances in his sexuality.
