In honor of one of our favorite writers, Madeleine L’Engle , we offer this introductory reading guide to her work. This Sunday, September 6th, marks the anniversary of her death.
We’ve ordered this list in the order that we think the books should be read, and we offer a brief explanation of why each book was included. This guide includes excerpts of most the books via Google Books.
