A Wrinkle in Time
Overview & Summary
Meg Murry, her genius younger brother Charles Wallace, and their friend Calvin are swept across the universe by three mysterious, otherworldly women to rescue Meg's scientist father, who vanished while experimenting with the fifth dimension -- a journey that takes them to a planet ruled by a disembodied, conformity-enforcing brain called IT. Madeleine L'Engle's Newbery Medal-winning novel blends science fiction with themes of love, individuality, and resistance to totalitarian sameness.
