WV in WOZ

Although a case could be made in support of the Christian world view in The Wizard of Oz, the story contains the fundamentals of postmodern literature. For example, as the story unfolds, Dorthy finds herself living in an alternate reality. This "reality" is a human invention, therefore linking the story to postmodernism. The postmodern ideas are essentially rooted in atheism. When looking at any worldview, they can be compared to a pair of eye glasses which may either help us make sense of reality, or on the other hand distort us from seeing the truth. The alternate reality in which the Wizard of Oz takes place, makes the text essentially from a postmodern point of view.
