Madeleine L'Engle
Madeleine L'Engle was an American author best known for *A Wrinkle in Time* (1962), a children's fantasy novel that blends science fiction with Christian mysticism.
The book won the Newbery Medal and spawned a series featuring the Murry family.
L'Engle's work often explores themes of good versus evil, the nature of time, and faith in tension with doubt.
She wrote prolifically across genres—fiction, poetry, memoir—though her young adult novels remain her lasting legacy.
