Description
In his foreword to this special edition, Salman Rushdie explores the idea of home and exile. He argues that The Wizard of Oz is more than a children's film. 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'. It shows us that imagination can become reality – and that the only home is the one we make for ourselves.
