Following the traditions of Gabriel GarcIa Marquez, John Gardner and J.R.R. Tolkien, "Wicked" is a richly woven tale that takes us to the other, darker side of the rainbow as novelist Gregory Maguire chronicles the Wicked Witch of the West's odyssey through the complex world of Oz -- where people call you wicked if you tell the truth. Years before Dorothy and her dog crash-land, another little girl makes her presence known in Oz. This girl, Elphaba, is born with emerald-green skin -- no easy burden in a land as mean and poor as Oz, where superstition and magic are not strong enough to explain or to overcome the natural disasters of flood and famine. But Elphaba is smart, and by the time she enters the university in Shiz, she becomes a member of a charmed circle of Oz' most promising young citizens. Elphaba's Oz is no utopia. The Wizard's secret police are everywhere. Animals -- those creatures with voices, souls and minds -- are threatened with exile. Young Elphaba, green and wild and misunderstood, is determined to protect the Animals -- even it means combating the mysterious Wizard, even if it means risking her single chance at romance. Even wiser in guilt and sorrow, she can find herself grateful when the world declares her a witch. And she can even make herself glad for that young girl from Kansas. In "Wicked," Gregory Maguire has taken the largely unknown world of Oz and populated it with the power of his own imagination. Fast-paced, fantastically real and supremely entertaining, this is a novel of vision and re-vision. Oz never will be the same again.

The first 300 pages are horrible, the last 100 pages are brilliant. Overall, horrible book. Don't know what's the deal with all the hype.
评分这是一本什么书呢?我看完后,陷入了思考。 这本书说的是一个传说中女巫的从生到死。她所生活的世界里发生的事情是诡秘的,神奇的,而她的成长中她一直在不断的追求,对于命运和现实的理解。 纵观了所有的细节以后,我认为这本书主要还是说信仰的。是信一个不可以名状的上帝...
评分本文发表于 南都周刊·读书吧 《魔法坏女巫》正在国内巡演,但如果你光看音乐剧不看书,会是一件很亏的事。 《魔法坏女巫》最容易让我联想到的词是 phony,就是《麦田里的守望者》里的中学生霍尔顿·考尔菲尔德老是在说的那个词,伪君子,假货色,「装 X 犯」。 《魔法坏女巫》...
