The Allende and Marquez Universe

Why do Marquez and Allende choose to create an alternate universe where the elements of magic are acceptable, or unremarkable? What is their intention in this design? Answer in a full paragraph that explains your position

Allende and Marquez create this universe completely unique to Latin American literature. They do this by using magical realism to make something that could never happen in the world we know. This transports the reader into Allende and Marquez's world. It is important to move the reader into this universe in order make them experience new things and become more vulnerable and open to the characters and plot. There is no other way that people who are not from Latin America can see what Allende and Marquez know as fact; this is what needs to happen to transport t he reader into the universe of Allende and Marquez.
