Wicked: the Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West 1st edition

This is the book that started it all! The basis for the smash hit Tony Award-winning Broadway musical, Gregory Maguire's breathtaking New York Times bestseller Wicked views the land of Oz, its inhabitants, its Wizard, and the Emerald City, through a darker and greener (not rosier) lens. Brilliantly inventive, Wicked offers us a radical new evaluation of one of the most feared and hated characters in all of literature: the much maligned Wicked Witch of the West who, as Maguire tells us, wasn?t nearly as Wicked as we imagined.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
