Fantasy, yes. But somehow this imaginative novel has feet firmly planted on a solid foundation of Truth. A follower of Christ, L'Engle saw no divide but only connection between the earthly and heavenly realm and was able to articulate biblical truths with complete relevance. Wrinkle in Time readers become fully immersed in fantastical travel, characters who appear to shift based on the demand of the time and place, and feelings -- of doubt, fear, joy, and hope to varying degrees. Allusion to biblical creatures and themes is clear to those versed in its truths. And while it may challenge perspectives, that is why this timeless, award-winning book is a powerful choice for discussion.
