SynopsisA collectable hardcover edition bringing together three of L. Frank Baum's classic novels set in the world of Oz, as celebrated in the smash-hit film adaptation of Wicked This fully annotated volume collects three of Baum's fourteen Oz novels in which he developed his utopian vision and which garnered an immense and loyal following. The Wizard of Oz (1900) introduces Dorothy, who arrives from Kansas and meets the Scarecrow, the Tin Woodman, the Cowardly Lion and a host of other characters. The Emerald City of Oz (1910) finds Dorothy, Aunt Em and Uncle Henry coming to Oz just as the wicked Nome King is plotting to conquer its people. In Baum's final novel, Glinda of Oz (1920), Dorothy and Princess Ozma try to prevent a battle between the Skeezers and the Flatheads. Tapping into a deeply rooted desire to live in a peaceful country which values the sharing of talents and gifts, Baum's imaginative creation, like all great utopian literature, holds out the possibility for change. Baum's classics spawned many adaptations, including the 1939 Judy Garland-starring classic film The Wizard of Oz and Gregory Maguire's 1995 novel, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West. The latter was adapted into the second-highest grossing Broadway musical of all time, Wicked, which is also phenomenally successful in London's West End. Included in this edition are a selection of original illustrations by W. W. Denslow and John R. Neill, a jacketed hardcover, top-staining and coloured endpapers., This stunning collectible hardcover edition of L. Frank Baum's classic features gorgeous printed and sprayed edges and colored endpapers designed with an Ex Libris bookplate In time to celebrate the forthcoming film adaptation of Wicked starring Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum, and Jonathan Bailey, and directed by Jon M.
