A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

“Maguire is full of storytelling brio . . . his Oz is meticulously drawn.” (New York Times)

“A tale that adroitly mixes drama, humor, and political satire into a well-knit examination of good and evil.” (Library Journal)

“Maguire has done it again: Son of a Witch is as wicked as they come. . . . Thoroughly entertaining.” (Boston Globe)

“Maguire’s captivating, fully imagined world of horror and wonder illuminates the links between good and evil, retribution and forgiveness.” (People)

“As fantastical as a novel set in Oz should be.” (Entertainment Weekly)

For Wicked: “I fell quickly and totally under the spell of this remarkable, wry, and fully realized story.” (―Wally Lamb, author of She's Come Undone and I Know This Much is True)

“An amazing novel.” (―John Updike)

Présentation de l'éditeur :

The Wicked Years continue in Gregory Maguire’s Son of a Witch—the heroic saga of the hapless yet determined young man who may or may not be the offspring of the fabled Wicked Witch of the West. A New York Times bestseller like its predecessor, the remarkable Wicked, Son of a Witch follows the boy Liir on his dark odyssey across an ingeniously re-imagined and nearly unrecognizable Land of Oz—a journey that will take him deep into the bowels of the Emerald City , lately abandoned by the Wizard, and into the jaws of dragons. At once a grim fairy tale and an uplifting adventure, Son of a Witch is a true wonder.
