AB In spite of the mythical and fantastical richness of Ireland, its imaginative people and itsorography and landscapes, the country is not credited with having magic realistic literarytexts in the twentieth century. The aim of this B.A. Thesis is to study four short stories “Children’s Children”, “Costellos”, “The Seventh Man” and “Ebenezer’s Memories”􀁿by three young Irish authors, Jan Carson, Oisin Fagan and Roisin O’Donnell, and to prove that they have features of magic realism. The methodology I have used is that of close reading of the four works and a comparison of their traits with the features of 'traditional' magic realism. As a result, we can conclude that there is magic realism in Irish literature but with some distinctive characteristics.
