About this book

Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West is Gregory Maguire's 1995 novel, which retells The Wonderful Wizard of Oz from the point of view of the witch. Elphaba is born in Oz with green skin and grows up as an outsider. At Shiz University she shares a room with the cheerful and popular Galinda, who will later become Glinda the Good, and the two form an uneasy friendship. The novel follows Elphaba's life as she becomes involved in politics, animal rights and the rise of the Wizard. It is darker and more political than the musical it inspired, which opened in 2003.
