"A delight....[A] funny and warmhearted exploration of the sacred
and the profane."--Washington Post"Reading The Next Queen of Heaven
is like hanging on to the back of an out-of-control carnival
ride--terrifying, thrilling, a once-in-a-lifetime adventure."--Ann
Patchett New York Times bestseller Gregory Maguire--who re-imagined
the land of Oz and all its fabled inhabitants in his monumental
series, The Wicked Years--brings us The Next Queen of Heaven, a
wildly farcical and gloriously imaginative tall tale of faith,
Catholic dogma, lust, and questionable miracles on the eve of Y2K.
The very bizarre and hilarious goings on in the eccentric town of
Thebes make for a delightfully mad reading experience--as The Next
Queen of Heaven shows off the acclaimed author of Confessions of an
Ugly Stepsister and Mirror Mirror in a brilliant new heavenly
light.
