112. A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle
b'
Chelsey and Sara chat about another children\\u2019s classic: A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L\\u2019Engle, reflecting on the difference between reading it as a kid versus our current adult perspectives. We discuss this novel\\u2019s unique characters and content, as well as the distinctive nature of the author herself. Allusions abound in this novel, from the biblical to the literary. As part of our exploration of children\\u2019s literature, we explore some themes and tropes of children\\u2019s literature that will certainly keep coming up throughout this semester as we explore the world of Classic Children\\u2019s Literature in your podcast feed and with our Patreon community.\\xa0
Together, we\\u2019re learning to be better, more critical and thorough readers of classic and contemporary literature. We love discussing books and reading with all of you and hope you\\u2019ll join our group of nerdy readers at patreon.com/novelpairings. Annual subscriptions are now available at a discounted price.\\xa0
