About this listen

“A brilliant, perceptive, and deeply moving fable.”
—Boston Sunday Globe

Publishers Weekly calls Gregory Maguire’s Lost “a deftly written, compulsively readable modern-day ghost story.” Brilliantly weaving together the literary threads of J.M. Barrie’s Peter Pan, Charles Dickens’s A Christmas Carol, and the Jack the Ripper stories,the bestselling author of The Wicked Years canon creates a captivating fairy tale for the modern world. With Lost, Maguire—who re-imagined a darker, more dangerous Oz, and inspired the creation of the Tony Award-winning Broadway blockbuster Wicked—delivers a haunting tale of shadows and phantoms and things going bump in the night, confirming his reputation as “one of contemporary fiction’s most assured myth-makers” (Kirkus Reviews).

I believe I might thoroughly have enjoyed this book if not for the inappropriate stresses and accents employed by the reader. The tale itself with its allusions to Dickens and Victorian fantasies is intriguing, but the reader seems unable to exhibit any empathy with the characters or the narrative. I would be most interested to hear this book given a more sympathetic reading by another narrator.

A good story, spoiled by a poor interpretation

this was an odd one, took me a long while to get into it and i was a little disapointed with the way it ran away at the end but the bulk of it in the middle was very good .

strange but enjoyable
