About this title

Synopsis:

For half a century, Madeleine L'Engle has spun magic with words, touching millions of lives and earning a devoted readership with her award-winning fiction, candid reflections on her personal and family life and graceful meditations on faith. Now, "Glimpses of Grace" captures the essence of L'Engle's literary gift in one unprecedented volume.

Ranging freely throughout L'Engle's remarkable lifework of more than 40 volumes of fiction and nonfiction, adventure stories, family dramas, autobiography and religious commentary, editor Carole P. Chase has collected evocative passages and arranged them as daily readings that offer illuminating bits of wisdom, provocative insight, and, above all, engaging and intelligent daily inspiration. With enduring power and resonance, each of these 366 rich selections speaks to the simple joys and sorrows of daily life and the deepest questions of the human heart and spirit, while reflecting the exhilarating artistry of one of the most spiritually alive and articulate storytellers of this century.

Review:

"[L'Engle is] one of the greatest creative writers and mystics of our times."-- M. Scott Peck, author of "The Road Less Traveled""L'Engle lifts us out of any depression [with] endearingly eccentric reflections on life's richness, love, and nature."-- "Los Angeles Times Book Review""L'Engle has extended the hand of Christian friendship to a large audience, those of us with thirsty spirits longing for wells that don't go dry."-- "The Catholic Standard"
