When Dorothy triumphed over the Wicked Witch of the West in L. Frank Baum's classic tale, we heard only her side of the story. But what about her arch-nemesis, the mysterious witch? Where did she come from? How did she become so wicked? And what is the true nature of evil? Gregory Maguire creates a fantasy world so rich and vivid that we will never look at Oz the same way again. Wicked is about a land where animals talk and strive to be treated like first-class citizens, Munchkinlanders seek the comfort of middle-class stability and the Tin Man becomes a victim of domestic violence. And then there is the little green-skinned girl named Elphaba, who will grow up to be the infamous Wicked Witch of the West, a smart, prickly and misunderstood creature who challenges all our preconceived notions about the nature of good and evil.

格雷戈里·马奎尔(Gregory Maguire,1954年6月9日-)一直致力于推广儿童文学,并从1978年开始为儿童创作童话故事。

1995年,马奎尔以经典童话《绿野仙踪》里的反派人物“西方坏女巫”为主角,创作了他第一本面向成年人的小说《魔法坏女巫》。“我们现在所看 到的历史,都是胜者写的。”马奎尔以“西方坏女巫”为契机,为长大成人的我们创作了一系列以经典童话中的“坏人”为主角的奇幻小说,挑战“胜者”视角下早已为人所熟知的故事。

《魔法坏女巫》在出版8年后被改编为音乐剧,在纽约百老汇与伦敦西区热演至今,获奖无数;《魔法坏女巫》小说也已跻身世界级畅销书行列,成为20世纪经典奇幻小说之一。
