In Memory: Madeleine L'Engle

One of the great voices of American literature died yesterday. Madeleine L'Engle, best known for A Wrinkle in Time, was a prolific writer and a deeply spiritual memoirist. Her Crosswicks series of memoirs delve deeply into family and the life of the Spirit. Her series on Genesis turned great literature- the Genesis cycle of stories- into a literature in which we can find even more nuances and hope. Her book Walking On Water was a truly challenging reflection on faith and art. And that's only the surface!

Madeleine- thank you for your faith and your living it for us in your writing.

Rest in peace- and well done, O good and faithful servant.
