The Wicked Witch Of The West In Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West Gregory Maguire radically contradicts the world created by the Frank Baum in Dorothy and the Wizard of Oz. In the Wizard of Oz we are introduced to a magical world. Two forces, good and evil power this world, and it is very easy to distinguish between the two. Reading the two books is like going through adolescence again. As a child everything in life seems very simple, people in life are either good or bad. Your parents are perfect creatures, that have no faults and are very wise, and then comes adolescence. During that period you realize that life is not what it seemed. It is more complicated than just good and evil.
