Explanation:

Magic Realism is the form of literary writing that infuses elements of magic, fantasy and the 'other' world with that of realism. The bringing together of these elements brought forth a new form of literature that was termed "magic realism".

Though there are lots of opinions about the origin of this magic realsim in literature, there are also some critics who opines that the Europeans are the predecessor of the Latin writers. Franz Kafka specially, ha already published his "The Metamorphosis" in 1915, way before the 'assumed' first realist writer Jorge Luis Borges wrote his "The Secret Miracle" which came out in 1943.. Thus, we can safely say that the first magical realist story is "The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka.
