Wicked Gregory Maguire "I wanted to read Wicked because I knew there had been a musical about it and I'd seen some of the pictures, and I hadn't had a chance to see the production. The story gives the history of Elpheba, who is the - that's the real name of the witch, the wicked witch in the story. And it talks about her growing up. It kind of gives a background of the history of the Land of Oz, Munchkin Land, and it gives a map kind of like the hobbits, with different places in their land. I'm a huge fan of The Wizard of Oz. I have - I probably have seen it 100 times, and I'm not exaggerating; I've seen it a huge amount since I was little, and to get the idea that you're going to get a different perspective on it from the wicked witch's point of view was just a great idea."
