Shadow Myths

If you are believing that you may find something rational, or to say the least normal, then you really don't need to read anything that Mr. Eltahir is writing, particularly when it comes to creative writing . As it is a solid fact that is known to all literature critiques in Magic Realist literature, the most fantastic, crazy things are told in a very matter-of-fact way. Your mom turned into a moonlike smiling face? No biggie. Your wallpaper started talking to you? Happens every day. Little fairies came to dress you for school this morning? We've all been there, but the most astonishing contribution to this attitude in writing that Mr. Eltahir is adding is the fact that he is often draw inspiration and material from all kinds of myths-ancient myths, modern myths, religious myths and all sorts of other myths, For one thing, myths are a ready source of fantastic happenings; pretty much anything can and does happen in myths. Could we call this a mythic-magical realism? He always denies that his works are relating to this school of writing or the other, he simply writes into a more phonological way - he simply echoed the true whispering of things, creatures to his panicked soul. In these collection of short stories, Mr. Eltahir is simply stating that (things are not actually the way they look like) therefore we should have to get rid of our inherited collective unconsciousness to be able to (see the reality of the world as it is: fresh and personal) the so-called weird things are - in his magical realism style of writing are told as if it's the most normal thing in the world-and that makes the fantastic elements of the story feel more realistic, as if they could actually happen. On top of that, though, myths are also ancient, collective stories of a given people. For Mr. Eltahir, for instance, incorporating myth into his work is one form of political critique. Political structures are temporary, but myths have survived for centuries, and they have helped form collective identities stronger than political categories and affiliations.
