midnight snack when they were upset by the arrival of a most
disturbing stranger.
"Wild nights are my glory," the unearthly stranger told them. "I
just got caught in a downdraft and blown off course. Let me sit
down for a moment, and then I''ll be on my way. Speaking of ways, by
the way, there is such a thing as a tesseract."
A tesseract in case the reader doesn''t know is a wrinkle in
time. To tell more would rob the reader of the enjoyment of Miss
L''Engle''s unusual book. A Wrinkle in Time, winner of the Newbery
Medal in 1963, is the story of the adventures in space and time of
Meg, Charles Wallace, and Calvin O''Keefe athlete, student, and one
of the most popular boys in high school. They are in search of
Meg''s father, a scientist who disappeared while engaged in secret
work for the government on the tesseract problem.

Madeleine L’Engle 1918–2007 was born in New York City and
attended Smith College. She wrote more than 60 books, the most
famous of which is A Wrinkle In Time 1962, winner of the Newbery
Award in 1963. L’Engle continued the story of the Murry family from
A Wrinkle In Time with seven other novels five of which are
available as A Wrinkle In Time Quintent from Square Fish. She also
wrote the famous series featuring the Austin family, beginning with
the novel Meet The Austins 1960. L’Engle revisited the Austins
four more times over the next three decades, concluding with
Troubling a Star in 1994. The story of the Austins had some
autobiographical elements, mirroring Madeleine’s life and the life
of her family. Madeleine L’Engle’s last book, The Joys of Love, is
a romantic, coming-of-age story she wrote back in the 1940s, and is
being published by FSG.
