Lost

I am a big fan of Gregory Maguire, I've read most of his books and cannot wait for his final installment to the Wicked series to come out this fall. While I was waiting I thought I'd fill the time with one of his books that I haven't read: Lost. Needless to say I think I became substantially more superstitious after reading this book and may have jumped out of my skin every time I heard a creak in the floor. With the ghosts of Ebenezer Scrooge and Jack the Ripper potentially haunting our protagonist Winnie while she attempts to write a novel which may not be completely fiction I saw how forbidden love and the inability to have a child can shape a woman's life.
