It was a dark and stormy night.
Madeleine L’Engle is dead, long live Madeleine L’Engle.
She introduced me to tessering in A Wrinkle in Time, and provided me with a quote that lived on my wall in high school and college. (Frustratingly, I can’t remember it, nor can I find it in the Interslice.)
Last night, Jason and I drove to Boston, and on the way, I read aloud the first two chapters of WiT. The consensus was that Charles Wallace, in all his infinite wisdom, is a little annoying. Still, the book holds great re-reading value, and we both enjoyed it.
You should read Two Part Invention, which is the story of her marriage. It’s very, very good.
I personally have always LOVED the Austin family books!
