Order early to get the best place in line and guarantee booksigning. Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West was published in 1995 to great acclaim and established Maguire as one of the most brilliant and original literary minds of our time. In it, the author created a rich fantasy world based on the characters and setting of The Wizard of Oz, as told from the point of view of the antagonist of L. Frank Baum’s classic tale. Offering a different look into the land of Oz, one full of political and social unrest, Maguire first introduced readers to a little green-skinned girl named Elphaba, the misunderstood creature who grows up to become the infamous villain of Baum’s beloved story. Wicked soon found champions and critical praise nationwide, and became the basis for the Broadway musical “Wicked” – one of the most successful Broadway productions in history. Maguire’s second volume in the Wicked Years series, Son of a Witch, arrived in 2005, and told the story of Elphaba’s son, Liir. A third volume, A Lion Among Men, followed the story of Brrr, the Cowardly Lion, coming out in 2008. Both became instant bestsellers. Now in OUT OF OZ, Maguire once again takes readers back to Oz, where The Emerald City is mounting an invasion of Munchkinland, Glinda is held under house arrest, and the Cowardly Lion is on the run from the law. And Dorothy Gale of Kansas makes something more than a cameo appearance. Amidst the chaos, Elphaba’s granddaughter, Rain, comes of age to take up her broom in an Oz wracked by war. The world of Oz comes full circle in an imaginative and stunning conclusion to one of the most beloved and bestselling series in modern American literature. In addition to the Wicked Years series, Maguire is also the bestselling author of Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister; Lost; and Mirror, Mirror. Maguire has performed original work for NPR’s “All Things Considered,” reviewed for the New York Times Book Review, and lectured on art, literature and culture both at home and abroad. He lives with his family in New England and in France. (jasbro)… (more)
Gregory Maguire Gregory Maguire discusses Out of Oz. Bestselling author Gregory Maguire’s astonishing series ”The Wicked Years” comes full circle with his fourth and final excursion across a darker, richer, more complex landscape of the magical land of Oz. His new book, ”Out of Oz,” brilliantly re-imagines L. Frank Baum’s world over the rainbow as wracked with social unrest (Glinda the good witch is under house arrest, and the Emerald City is preparing for war against Munchinkinland). Even Dorothy makes a triumphant return in his finale, tying up loose ends of the series that began with the now-classic ”Wicked,” the source for the Tony Award-winning Broadway hit musical. We will have limited space for this popular program, so be sure to mark the date and time on your calendar! (jasbro)… (more)
