"It was a dark and stormy night," begins Madeleine L'Engle's classic, A Wrinkle in Time. The author died on September 6th at the age of 88. L'Engle's works included poetry, plays, autobiography and books on prayer, but she was most notably recognized for the Newbury award-winning book that was rejected by 26 publishers before Farrar, Straus & Giroux published it.
