Aliasgar Hussain Ms. Pugliese ENG4U 27/05/2016 Midnight’s Children – Parable of a Nation Salman Rushdie’s post-colonial dictation of historical fiction is enriched by thematic adaptations of magical realism, metaphysics, and a miraculous perception to refract India’s struggle as truly a birth which establishes a shift in age. Rushdie’s satirical literary approach is stylistically equivalent to Voltaire’s Candide, and Marquez’s One Hundred Years of Solitude, but it implements particular abstract
