A Wrinkle in Time

A Wrinkle in Time
By: Madeleine L'Engle
ISBN: 0440498058


Everyone in town thinks Meg Murry is volatile and dull-witted, and that her younger brother, Charles Wallace, is dumb. People are also saying that their physicist father has run off and left their brilliant scientist mother. Spurred on by these rumors and an unearthly stranger, the tesseract-touting Mrs Whatsit, Meg and Charles Wallace and their new friend Calvin O'Keefe embark on a perilous quest through space to find their father. In doing so, they must travel behind the shadow of an evil power that is darkening the cosmos, one planet at a time. This is no superhero tale, nor is it science fiction, titlehough it shares elements of both. The travelers must rely on their individual and collective strengths, delving deep within themselves to find answers.

I thought this book was a very interesting book, because it tells what they have learned from their adventures or their experiences. It was just a very interesting book for me.

L'Engle, Madeleine. A Wrinkle In Time. 1962. New York: Dell, 1973.
