Ep-30 Ink to Film: A Wrinkle in Time (1962 novel)

Join Luke & James as they take a wholesome trip across the
universe with Madeleine L’Engle’s 1962 novel, “A Wrinkle in
Time,” before they see the new film by Ava DuVernay starring
Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon, Mindy Kaling, and more. They
begin with only general thoughts about the novel, some of the
science the book deals with, and the difficulties the author had
with finding a publisher.


SPOILERS BEGIN: 29:30


Spoiler topics include: Things that haven’t aged well in the
novel, a trip to a 2D world, the commendable job the book does of
explaining heady scientific concepts to a young audience, the
anti-authoritarian themes, the controversial ways the novel deals
with science and religion, and finally the backlash that
Madeleine L’Engle faced because of her future books.
