The bestselling author of A Wrinkle in Time reflects on themes such as advent, epiphany, faith, and wonder in this Christmas holiday classic.

For more than fifty years, Madeleine L'Engle has delighted and inspired readers with her warm, eloquent prose and inspirational poetry. She continues this tradition with Miracle on 10th Street, a collection of poignant writings and reflections that give readers a glimpse of how the wonder of Christmas resonates in her personal life, which deeply involves her family and faith: "I think back to that Christmas when my husband and I did not know whether our little girl would live to grow up," she writes. "Between that Christmas and this, there have been many times when I have been in the fiery furnace, but I am beginning to understand who is in there with me and that when I need it, I am given courage I never knew I had."

For anyone yearning for the childlike wonder of the Christmas season to arise in them once more, Miracle on 10th Street is a rich and delightful read.

About the Author

Madeleine L'Engle was the author of more than forty-five books for all ages, among them the beloved A Wrinkle in Time, awarded the Newbery Medal; A Ring of Endless Light, a Newbery Honor Book; A Swiftly Tilting Planet, winner of the American Book Award; and the Austin family series of which Troubling a Star is the fifth book. L'Engle was named the 1998 recipient of the Margaret A. Edwards award, honoring her lifetime contribution in writing for teens.

Ms. L'Engle was born in 1918 in New York City. She wrote her first book, The Small Rain, while touring with Eva Le Gallienne in Uncle Harry. She met Hugh Franklin, to whom she was married until his death in 1986, while they were rehearsing The Cherry Orchard, and they were married on tour during a run of The Joyous Season, starring Ethel Barrymore.

Ms. L'Engle retired from the stage after her marriage, and the Franklins moved to northwest Connecticut and opened a general store. After a decade in Connecticut, the family returned to New York.

After splitting her time between New York City and Connecticut and acting as the librarian and writer-in-residence at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, Madeleine L'Engle died on September 7, 2007 at the age of 88.

Don't just read this at Christmas!

Madeline L'Engle's book of poetry, essays, and excerpts from other books is a treasure. It reveals L'Engle's beliefs about the true meaning of Advent at Christmas time and through these poems and writings winds a thread that starts with creation, continues through the first advent of Christ-the birth of the baby Jesus, and goes all the way to the second advent of Christ-the Second Coming. Her poems and stories take the reader from the stars and galaxies in the universe to a tiny apartment in New York. It reveals her incredible mind and imagination that is able to blend science and mysticism, imagination and reality. It makes one think. It makes one want to read the book again and again, in order to understand the truly powerful Love of the LORD God-Our Creator and Savior and King.

Lovely Christmas read

This book is a collection of poems, short stories, essays and reflections by Madeleine L'Engle on Christmas, Advent, Epiphany etc.

I have only read her children's books (A Wrinkle in Time was my favourite book when I was a child) so it was interesting to encounter her adult work.

It was a lovely book to dip into, reading one or two pages at a time.
