The best Madeleine L'Engle Resource available!, May 17 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Suncatcher: A Study of Madeleine L'Engle and Her Writings (Paperback)
Considering the vast literary contribution of Madeleine L'Engle, this book surely took monumental effort -- fortunately it doesn't read that way. Carole Chase is to be congratulated for producing a biographical & critical work that is academically responsible and imminently readable; she has created the first comprehensive L'Engle resource and she has done it with "a heart".If your reading of Madeleine L'Engle has produced a desire for you to know this fascinating author better -- Suncatcher is for you. Not only will you be engaged by her fervancy and spiritual vision, you will likely be astounded at how widely she has written. Chase has ignored nothing -- drawing from the more than fifty books of fiction, poetry and philosophical/theological writings as well as many of her unpublished letters and other work.
Plus, this new addition has tremendously valuable new resources for the serious L'Engle reader:
· Madeleine L'Engle's 1963 Newbery Medal Acceptance Address (Very Rare)
· A forward by Madeleine L'Engle herself (New)
· Comprehensive and up-to-date relational diagrams, clearly illustrating the interconnections among L'Engle's fictional characters and families (This is outstanding!)
· Newly-created, comprehensive character catalog with cross-references!
· AND... this new edition is fully up to date with respect to Madeleine's most recent books and publications as of late 1998.
After reading Suncatcher, I wanted to go back and re-read Wrinkle in Time and I disovered many other L'Engle books that I want to read for the first time.
Read Suncatcher: A Study of Madeleine L'Engle and Her Writing... you won't be disappointed!
