About this listen
Madeleine L’Engle’s ground-breaking science fiction and fantasy classic, now a major motion picture. This audiobook includes an introduction read by the film director Ava DuVernay, a foreword read by the author, and an afterword read by Madeleine L’Engle’s granddaughter Charlotte Jones Voiklis.
Meg Murray, her little brother Charles Wallace, and their mother are having a midnight snack on a dark and stormy night when an unearthly stranger appears at their door. He claims to have been blown off course, and goes on to tell them that there is such a thing as a “tesseract”, which, if you didn’t know, is a wrinkle in time. Meg’s father had been experimenting with time-travel when he suddenly disappeared. Will Meg, Charles Wallace, and their friend Calvin outwit the forces of evil as they search through space for their father?
In 1962, Madeleine L’Engle debuted her novel A Wrinkle in Time, which would go on to win the 1963 Newbery Medal. Bridging science and fantasy, darkness and light, fear and friendship, the story became a classic of children’s literature and is beloved around the world.
A Wrinkle in Time is the first book in The Time Quintet, which consists of A Wrinkle in Time, A Wind in the Door, A Swiftly Tilting Planet, Many Waters, and An Acceptable Time.

Rather a lame end...
There is a charm about the story that seems entirely unintended which lends to the tale a kind of lightness... yet the theme seems a bit contrived. There are times when the author seems to be speaking directly to the reader (with long sentences) by seemingly reaching outside rather than staying within the confines of the story or the characters. This isn't helped of course, by the hurried denouement that leaves you feeling quite a bit dissatisfied.
It is of course a very engaging, entertaining, and instructive (in a spiritual way... should you want it to) story and is without doubt 'one for the ages' that has and, I assume, will continue to enthral readers (and in this instance listeners like myself).
A comment about the narration or performance.
Although Hope Davis does a good job with her enunciation, intonation and voice modulation for each character... her reading of Meg's implorations would get intensely grating. I'm not sure if the drawl was in fact intended or indeed needed at all times.

Really amazing book!
I do not understand why this book has been given such a low rating. However, I felt that this book was really inspiring in the way it shows us how we can be strong by believing. Also it was an awesome science fiction based on the concept the Tesseract. I really love it and recommend it to all fantasy, science fiction, adventure and mystery lovers.
