Maguire, was written in? I am doing a project for my AP English class and for this I need to list some historical events that may have affected the way Gregory Maguire wrote "Wicked: The life and times of the Wicked Witch of the West" (published in 1995). I definitely got images of Holocaust while reading this novel but is too long before the book was published to include in my list? Also what else may have affected Maguire?
Also what do think the tone of this novel is? I felt like the was author's tone was given through Elaphaba's character. To me Maguire seemed like he was distraught like he everything he did was not good enough; he couldn't change society.
