This Fall, rediscover the magic of A Wrinkle in Time and all seven of its sequels in a deluxe, two-volume collector’s edition boxed set.
Madeleine L’Engle’s A Wrinkle in Time is one of the most beloved and influential novels for young readers ever written. The book’s unforgettable heroine, Meg Murry, must confront her fears and self-doubt to rescue her scientist father, who has been experimenting with mysterious tesseracts capable of bending the very fabric of space and time. But A Wrinkle in Time was only the beginning of the adventures. This September, for the first time, L’Engle’s iconic classic and all seven of its sequels—the complete Kairos (“cosmic time”) novels—will be collected in a deluxe edition for the ages (and for all ages), complete with never-before-seen deleted passages from A Wrinkle in Time.
In the trailer above, L’Engle’s granddaughter, Charlotte Jones Voiklis; children’s book historian Leonard Marcus; and Library of America editor Stefanie Peters share some insights into the editorial process behind the forthcoming release.
