Could this magical realism type novel find an audience?

Question

If this novel is well written could it find an audience? It's part reality/part fantasy, for a good reason. A boy is taken from his adopted family and goes to live with his real mother and grandparents even though he never met them (separated at birth). Since he doesn't find reality comprehensible, and he's confused, events in his neighborhood seem real but always have a magical element-- since he has to fill in the parts he doesn't understand. One chapter: his hero is a high school student--the state champion high jumper. When the friend gets a beating by his father, the narrator gets upset and hits the father with a rock. The friend runs away. The neighborhood is worried, thinking the boy is missing. They search for him until the narrator sees his hero standing on a roof. He smiles & jumps. Instead of falling, he starts flying. The boy points to the sky. Everybody else sees him flying too. Why not? He's the high jump champ! P.S. The first chapter was publlished in a magazine.
