Kurzbeschreibung

Erscheinungstermin: 15. Februar 1976 | Reihe: The Time Quartet
This special edition of A Wrinkle in Time includes a new essay that explores the science behind the fantasy.
Rediscover one of the most beloved children's books of all time: A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle:

Meg Murray, her little brother Charles Wallace, and their mother are having a midnight snack on a dark and stormy night when an unearthly stranger appears at their door. He claims to have been blown off course, and goes on to tell them that there is such a thing as a "tesseract," which, if you didn't know, is a wrinkle in time.

Meg's father had been experimenting with time-travel when he suddenly disappeared. Will Meg, Charles Wallace, and their friend Calvin outwit the forces of evil as they search through space for their father?

Amazon.de

Everyone in town thinks Meg is volatile and dull-witted and that her younger brother Charles Wallace is dumb. People are also saying that their father has run off and left their brilliant scientist mother. Spurred on by these rumors, Meg and Charles Wallace, along with their new friend Calvin, embark on a perilous quest through space to find their father. In doing so they must travel behind the shadow of an evil power that is darkening the cosmos, one planet at a time.

Young people who have trouble finding their place in the world will connect with the "misfit" characters in this provocative story. This is no superhero tale, nor is it science fiction, although it shares elements of both. The travelers must rely on their individual and collective strengths, delving deep into their characters to find answers.

A classic since 1962, Madeleine L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time is sophisticated in concept yet warm in tone, with mystery and love coursing through its pages. Meg's shattering yet ultimately freeing discovery that her father is not omnipotent provides a satisfying coming-of-age element. Readers will feel a sense of power as they travel with these three children, challenging concepts of time, space, and the power of good over evil. (Ages 9 to 12) -- Dieser Text bezieht sich auf eine andere Ausgabe: Gebundene Ausgabe .

4.0 von 5 Sternen Something different 31. Juli 2000
Von "malachix"
Format:Taschenbuch
One thing which stands out on the advenures of the Murry family is that they have elements of sci-fi and fantasy. A Wrinkle in Time is no exception and can be read on many levels. Even at 16 I still enjoyed this book. L'Engle is a very talented writer and her stories have an imagination not usually found in most writing. However, A Wrinkle in Time does have a rather annoying downfall. Without ruining anything, I found that the ending came too soon and that the story felt like it was abandoned rather than finished. Still, it's a great story and one that should not be missed.

Wrinkle in Time makes you think. A tale about three extra-ordinary children embarking on a adventure to save a life. This book is one you will love from age 10 to age 110! If your thinking about a L'Engle book start with this one. Passionate and a page-turner for sure!

5.0 von 5 Sternen Can you believe that this isn't a movie yet? 6. Juni 1999
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
In the world of bad sci-fi films (such as "Star Wars" The Phantom Menace", a poor excuse for a child's movie - or even an adult fan's movie, at that), it's simply astounding that no one has made this amazing book into the wonderful movie that it wants to be. Teenage romance, deep family and social dynamics, interesting characters, space travel, alien witches who can morph into beautiful creatures with crystal wings, the basic - and vital - interaction between good and evil, and even a brain on a pedestal as the "Bad Guy" - this book has EVERY element of a major box-office success. Combine these facts with the supreme brand recognition and fond memories of my generation (I'm 36, read this in grade school, and continually reread it into adulthood), and the fact that L'Engle even wrote sequels, and you have to wonder what the Hollywood set is thinking in ignoring this classic literary work.

If you have children, get this book for them. No, there are no supporting toy lines to buy, no merchandising nightmares to contend with, no Taco Bell "Camazotz" cups - just a great, compelling story. If you are grown up, get this book and remind yourself that good science fiction requires nothing more than a good idea and an expressive writer - and nothing less, either.

Mr. Lucas and Mr. Spielberg, if you REALLY want to make a good _children's_ movie (clearly, neither "Star Wars" or "Hook" accomplish this with any degree of success), then wake up and read "A Wrinkle in Time". Your next box office smash is waiting for you, no dinosaurs, gratuitous effects or lasers required!

5.0 von 5 Sternen Deep 17. Juli 2000
Von M. Tidman
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
I read this book when I was 10 or 11, and much of it went straight over my head. My college philosophy teacher recommended it, so I decided to try again. It really does give one a lot to think about, so I'll have to follow Dr. Peterson's example and recommend it to you, regardless of what age you may be at this time. My only complaint about this book is that it ended rather abruptly. My plan is to find the companion works and see if they remedy that.

1.0 von 5 Sternen Review of "A Wrinkle in Time" 23. Mai 2000
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
With apologies to those who read this book as children andloved it, I found it tiresome. The author appears to be trying veryhard to instill proper values in young readers. The "good" characters are unfailingly polite and considerate. The "Miss Manners" tone becomes so obtrusive at times that it's bothersome. Along similar lines, several of the book's sympathetic characters are child prodigies who go around spouting multisyllabic words and generally showing off their brilliance. Children who read the book are evidently supposed to identify with these characters and emulate them, while absorbing lots of big impressive words. I can think of several "adult" science fiction/fantasy authors I enjoyed as a child, whom I would recommend much more highly for children than L'engle: Jules Verne, H. G. Wells, Ray Bradbury, and J. R. R. Tolkien, among others.

5.0 von 5 Sternen A Wrinkle in Time - Thoreau Middle School Report 15. Dezember 1999
Von Ein Kunde
Format:Taschenbuch
A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle is an outstanding book. All Meg and her brother Charles Wallace want is to find their father, who mysteriously disappeared during experiments with time and space travel. Along with the eighth grade superstar Calvin, and three ladies with a special secret, Meg and Charles go on an amazing journey into the unknown. They travel through time and space to many different planets and meet many different people and creatures.

It is truly a grabbing story that will pull you into the world of imagination. My favorite part was in the beginning. It was a dark and stormy night when a stranger walked into the house of Charles Wallace, the unsuspecting Meg, the twins Sandy and Dennys, and Mrs. Murry, who is the mother of all these children. "Wild nights are my glory," said the stranger. "I just got caught in a down draft and blown off course. Let me sit down for a moment, and then I'll be on my way. Speaking of way, by the way, there is such a thing as a tesseract". There is something unearthly about this stranger and Meg gets the feeling that they will meet again.

This is a book of love and hope. Madeleine L'Engle has truly created a masterpiece. A Wrinkle in Time is a wonderful book for just about anyone. I would give this book five stars and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in science fiction involving time and space. But even if you're not interested in that kind of thing, this would still be a great book for you.
