Madeleine L'Engle's beloved children's science fantasy classic, A Wrinkle in Time, follows young Meg Murry as she journeys across space and time using a tesseract to rescue her scientist father from a malevolent cosmic entity. The book continues to resonate deeply, serving as both a nostalgic touchstone and a frequent point of cultural reference across various podcasts. Sarah Lyall expressed her enduring affection for the novel on The Book Review after recently finishing the audiobook. Candace Owens discussed the book's plot elements on Candace to explain the literary origins of the term 'Tesseract Schools.' Guest Alexandra Alter noted the book's surprising and massive sales longevity decades after its initial publication on The Book Review. On Freakonomics Radio, former NBA player Chris Bosh recalled the novel as the very first book he ever read and loved. Ian Crossland and Jason Bermas drew thematic parallels on Timcast IRL between the book's depiction of a young brother interfacing with a controlling cosmic brain and modern concepts of centralized technological networks overtaking human autonomy. Finally, Adam Grant mentioned the novel on the a16z Podcast as a cherished childhood reading memory shared by prominent modern technology leaders like Jeff Bezos and Sheryl Sandberg.
