A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle. Classic teenage read.
This vintage softcover pocket book is a Laurel-Leaf Book, First Edition of Dell Publishing, 1976.
Back cover reads in part:
"It was a dark and stormy night; Meg Murry, her small brother Charles Wallace, and her mother had come down to the kitchen for a midnight snack when they were upset by the arrival of a most disturbing stranger.
'Wild nights are my glory,' the unearthly stranger told them. 'I just got caught in a downdraft and blown off course. Let me sit down for a moment, and then I'll be on my way. Speaking of way, by the way, there is such a thing as a tesseract.'
A tesseract (in case the reader doesn't know) is a wrinkle in time. To tell more would rob the reader of the enjoyment of Miss L'Engle's unusual book."
Condition is good for this paperback considering its age. Binding is strong. No writing. A couple of very minor "turning" tears in the two front cover / copyright pages. Cover is good - a little scuffing here and there. Overall very good for a 1970s paperback.
