Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West - Gregory Maguire - A Short Summary and Review

Posted by a.d. elliott

A short summary of the book Wicked:

The tragedy of Elphaba.

My favorite Gregory Maguire quote of the book:

"No one controls your destiny. Even at the worst, there is always a choice."


Questions to ponder while reading Wicked:

What did you think of Oscar?

What would you do for a pair of shoes?

My thoughts about Wicked:

A great twist on an old story.

I am now on team Elphaba.

Oppression is always ugly.
