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. Wild nights are my glory, the unearthly stranger told them. I just got caught in a downdraft 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.
A tesseract (in case the reader doesn't know) is a wrinkle in time. To tell more would rob the reader of the enjoyment of Miss L'Engle's unusual book.
Madeleine L'Engle Camp was born in New York City and educated in boarding schools in Switzerland and across the United States. A shy, withdrawn child with few friends, she retreated into writing at an early age. She attended Smith College, graduating summa cum laude in 1941. After college, she worked in the New York theatre, where she met her future husband, Hugh Franklin. (Later she would say that they "met in The Cherry Orchard and married during The Joyous Season.") Her first book, The Small Rain (1945), was completed while she was still working as an actress.
After the birth of their first child, Madeleine and her husband moved to rural Connecticut to run a small general store; but in 1959, they returned to New York City with their three children so Hugh Franklin could resume his acting career (For many years, he played Dr. Charles Tyler on the popular television soap opera All My Children.) Although Madeleine wrote steadily during this period, few of her books were published. Then, in 1960, she released her first children's story, Meet the Austins. An affectionate portrait of a close-knit family, the book was named an ALA Notable Children's Book of the year and spawned several bestselling sequels.
Completed in 1960, L'Engle's science fiction YA classic A Wrinkle in Time was rejected by more than two dozen publishers before Farrar, Straus and Giroux finally released it in 1962. Elegant, imaginative, and filled with complex moral themes, the acclaimed Newbery Medal winner tells the story of Meg Murry, a young girl who travels through time with her psychically gifted younger brother to rescue their scientist father from a planet controlled by an evil entity known as the Dark Thing. Throughout her career, L'Engle would return to the Murry family three more times, in A Wind in the Door (1973), A Swiftly Tilting Planet (1978), and Many Waters (1986). The Time Quartet, as these four books have come to be called, weaves together elements of theology and quantum physics often assumed to be far too esoteric for children to understand. Yet, it became a true classic of juvenalia. L'Engle explained once, "You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children."
In addition to her YA novels, the prolific writer also penned adult fiction, poems, plays, memoirs, and religious meditations. She served as the longtime librarian and writer-in-residence for the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine. Madeleine L'Engle passed away at a nursing home in Connecticut in 2007.
这本书有一种独特的魔力,它能够轻易地抓住读者的注意力,并将你带入一个超越时间和空间的奇妙世界。我非常喜欢作者处理科学概念的方式,它并非生硬地灌输,而是自然地融入到故事的叙事中,让读者在享受阅读乐趣的同时,也能对一些深奥的宇宙奥秘产生好奇。特别是书中对于“邪恶”的理解,它不是一个具体的形象,而是一种蔓延的、吞噬个体精神的力量,这种描绘更加令人毛骨悚然,也更具警示意义。主角梅格的成长历程堪称经典,她从一个自卑、笨拙的孩子,逐渐成长为一个勇敢、坚定的少女,这个过程充满了真实感和感染力。她依靠的不是外在的超能力,而是内心的勇气、爱和智慧。书中的一些对话,充满了智慧和哲理,仿佛是来自宇宙深处的启示。读完之后,你会发现自己对爱、对家庭、对宇宙的理解都得到了升华。它不仅仅是一本青少年读物,更是一本能够跨越年龄,给予所有读者启迪的书籍。
评分这本书简直就像一场智力探险,作者用一种充满想象力的方式,将科学的宏大概念与深邃的哲学思考巧妙地融入到一个引人入胜的故事中。读的时候,我感觉自己仿佛置身于宇宙的每一个角落,穿越时空,感受着不同维度的奇妙。这本书不仅仅是关于一个女孩的冒险,它更像是在邀请读者一同思考关于爱、勇气、自由意志以及善恶的本质。每一次阅读,都能发现新的层次和更深的寓意。作者对人物的刻画也非常到位,每个角色都有着鲜明的个性和独特的成长轨迹。尤其是主角的坚定和善良,以及她在面对未知和恐惧时的成长,让人深受触动。书中的一些场景,比如对“乌黑”力量的描绘,以及主角们如何对抗这种无形但强大的邪恶,都充满了张力和象征意义。它不是那种简单的“好人战胜坏人”的套路,而是更细腻地展现了内心的挣扎和选择的艰难。这本书会让你在合上书本后,依然久久回味,思考其中的深意。它就像一颗种子,在读者的心中种下对探索宇宙、认识自我的渴望。
评分这是一次充满奇幻色彩的旅程,但又不仅仅是奇幻。作者构建了一个令人惊叹的世界观,将科学理论以一种极具创造力的方式呈现在读者面前,比如“折叠时空”的概念,听起来就像是科幻小说中的经典桥段,但在这里,它被赋予了更深刻的意义,成为推动情节发展和角色成长的关键。故事中对“同化”和“群体思维”的描绘,尤其令人警醒。它让我反思在追求和谐与统一的过程中,是否会失去个体独特的价值和独立的思考能力。主角梅格的旅程,不仅仅是对外部世界的探索,更是一次深刻的内心探索。她必须面对自己的缺点和恐惧,才能真正找到内在的力量。书中的一些配角,比如心地善良但充满智慧的MRS. WHISPER,以及两位神秘的“太太们”,都为故事增添了色彩和深度。她们不仅是提供帮助的角色,更是象征着宇宙中存在的不同形式的智慧和指引。这本书的语言充满了诗意和哲理,即使是阅读英文原版,也能感受到其独特的韵味。它会让你在惊叹于作者想象力的同时,也被其深刻的内涵所打动。
评分这是一本真正能够启发思考的书,它不仅仅是关于一次奇幻的宇宙冒险,更是一次关于爱、勇气和自由意志的深刻探讨。作者以一种引人入胜的方式,将复杂的科学概念融入到一个扣人心弦的故事中,让读者在惊叹于作者想象力的同时,也能对宇宙的浩瀚和生命的奥秘产生敬畏。书中对“邪恶”的描绘,并非简单脸谱化的反派,而是一种吞噬个性和思想的普遍力量,这种描绘更具现实意义和警示作用。主角梅格的成长过程,从一个不自信、常常感到格格不入的女孩,逐渐蜕变成一个勇敢、坚毅的少女,这个过程充满了真实感和力量。她依靠的不是魔法,而是内心的坚持、对家人的爱以及对真理的渴望。这本书的语言充满了诗意和哲理,即使是英文原版,也能感受到其独特的魅力。它会让你在合上书本后,依然久久回味,思考关于爱、关于善恶、关于宇宙的终极问题。
评分这是一部充满想象力和哲学深度的作品,它将读者带入一场跨越时空的冒险,并在此过程中探索关于人性、爱和自由的深刻主题。作者以一种令人惊叹的方式,将科幻元素与人文关怀巧妙地融合在一起。书中的“同化”概念,对个体意识的压制,以及对自由思想的威胁,都充满了令人不安的真实感,让我在阅读时不禁思考现实生活中类似的情况。主角梅格的成长故事尤为感人,她必须战胜自己的内向和缺乏自信,才能在巨大的挑战面前找到力量。她所依靠的,并非所谓的“天赋异禀”,而是最朴素的爱和勇气,以及对真理的不懈追求。书中的一些场景,如穿越“乌黑”的描写,充满了紧张和神秘感,让我仿佛身临其境,与主角们一同经历生死考验。这本书的语言优美且富有诗意,即使在阅读英文原版时,也能感受到其文字的魅力。它不仅仅是一个好听的故事,更是一次关于内心成长的深刻旅程。
