"The fantastic genre ... involves a confrontation between two worlds whose basic physical norms are mutually incompatible. A miracle is "Another world's intrusion into this one," according to a character in Pynchon's The Crying of Lot 49 , and it is precisely the miraculous in this sense of the term that constitutes the ontological structure of the fantastic genre." — Brian McHale, Postmodernist Fiction (info )
