The use of magical realism in Latin American literature help explain about Latin American culture:

That neither logic nor superstition can fully explain cultural traditions.

Magical realism is a literary genre in which magical elements are added to a mostly realistic world. It is a type of fiction. Therefore, this genre is sometimes oblivious to scientific facts in order to add magical elements.

Finally, the goal of this genre is to entertain and show cultural traditions but in no way it tries to demonstrate that European readers are unable to understand Latin American societies.
