Madeleine L'Engle was born 100 years ago today, on 29-November-1918. I think I first read
A Wrinkle in Time while I was in high school. I'm not a fantasy/science fiction fan, but I enjoyed it. I read
A Swiftly Tilting Planet,
Many Waters, and
An Acceptable Time while I was in college. She was a Christian Universalist, which got some of her books banned in Christian schools. "I cannot believe that God wants punishment to go on interminably any more than does a loving parent. The entire purpose of loving punishment is to teach, and it lasts only as long as is needed for the lesson. And the lesson is always love."
