''The Enchantress of Florence'' (2008) is the ninth novel of [[Salman Rushdie]], which unapologetically mixes historical facts and fantastical elements without shame or mercy. It is mostly seen as a work of [[Magic Realism]], but with quite a dose of fantasy element. Rushdie is particularly proud of the research he's done for the novel's writing, and proudly attached half a dozen pages of references at the end of the book—not bad for a work of fiction.
