There is a wonderful profile of Madeleine L’Engle in the April 12 issue of The New Yorker. Unfortunately it is not online. Written by Cynthia Zarin, who spent and perhaps spends a lot of time with her subject, the article gives you a sense of the unique personality of a remarkable woman and writer. It takes you along the path of her life story and how it affected and formed her characters and conflicts. Her family reveals that her fiction is in many ways more truthful about her life than her non-fiction memoirs.
