"Takin' the Long Way Around"

This week's quote is a passage from one of my favorite books, Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West.

"She would emerge. She always had before. The punishing political climate of Oz had beat her down, dried her up, tossed her away -- like a seedling she had drifted, apparently too desiccated ever to take root. But surely the curse was on the land of Oz, not on her. Though Oz had given her a twisted life, hadn't it also made her capable?"
