Biografía breve
Madeleine L'Engle Camp began writing stories, poems and journals at a young age. When she was 12, she moved with her parents to the French Alps and went to an English boarding school. She attended high school back in the USA at Ashley Hall in Charleston, South Carolina, vacationing with her mother in an old cottage on Florida Beach.

She majored in English at Smith College and graduated with honors in 1941. She moved into an apartment in Greenwich Village in New York, worked in the theater, and published her first two novels, A Small Rain (1945) and Ilsa (1946). In 1946, she married Hugh Franklin, an actor, whom she met while an understudy in Anton Chekov’s The Cherry Orchard. The couple moved to Connecticut to raise their family on a small dairy farm village with more cows than people; they later returned to New York City with three children. Madeleine began an association with the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, where she was the librarian and maintained an office for more than 30 years. She produced more than 60 books during her career.

Reseñas

Una historia fascinante en la que podría parecer extraño encontrar ciencia ficción y religión; sin embargo, la autora hizo un gran trabajo y es impresionante la forma en la que aborda temas de física de forma entretenida y clara para el público al que va dirigido. Es una verdadera lástima no haber encontrado este clásico antes y de hecho, es también una lástima que esta autora sea tan desconocida en México.

It was a dark and stormy night; Meg, Murry, her small brother Charles Wallace, and her mother had come down to the kitchen for a midnight snack when they were upset by the arrival of a most disturbing stranger.

A los quince años no es facil entender que tus padres han dejado de querese y que tu vida va a cambiar de repente. Y si ademas te enamoras por primera vez, todo se complica aun mas. Una historia que muestra la dificultad de enfrentarse a la vida en plena adolescencia y la importancia de la amistad para salir adelante. Camila, para los jovenes que han pensado alguna vez que se les exige madurar demasiado deprisa
