The Wizard of Oz

By Dev On November 4, 1992 · Add Comment · In Arts & Culture, Books

For Rushdie The Wizard of Oz is more than a children's film, and more than a fantasy. It's a story whose driving force is the inadequacy of adults, in which 'the weakness of grown-ups forces children to take control of their own destinies'.
