by Madeleine L'Engle
The
third book in L'Engle's Time Quintet, but the least satisfying one so
far. I found the time hopping between different generations of the same
family sometimes difficult to follow. There were elements I still
enjoyed, and L'Engle's imagination is still abundantly evident. I found
this to be less a story about the Murry family, and rather a vehicle
into another family's epic. The threat of nuclear war did seem relevant
to our current situation. Perhaps Mad Dog Branzillo foreshadowed current
events. I did enjoy the Celtic rune that was central to the storyline.
