She wrote more than 60 books, the most famous of which is \u003ci\u003eA Wrinkle In Time\u003c\/i\u003e (1962), winner of the Newbery Award in 1963. L'Engle continued the story of the Murry family from \u003ci\u003eA Wrinkle In Time\u003c\/i\u003e with seven other novels (five of which are available as \u003ci\u003eA Wrinkle In Time \u003c\/i\u003eQuintent from Square Fish). She also wrote the famous series featuring the Austin family, beginning with the novel \u003ci\u003eMeet The Austins\u003c\/i\u003e (1960). L'Engle revisited the Austins four more times over the next three decades, concluding with \u003ci\u003eTroubling a Star\u003c\/i\u003e in 1994. The story of the Austins had some autobiographical elements, mirroring Madeleine's life and the life of her family. Madeleine L'Engle's last book, \u003ci\u003eThe Joys of Love\u003c\/i\u003e, is a romantic, coming-of-age story she wrote back in the 1940s, and is being published by FSG.\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Ingram","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44139187110102,"sku":"9780312367541","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0672\/1660\/5398\/products\/img_ff5715da-8bf0-4774-a357-98518efa7d69.jpg?v=1681395153","url":"https:\/\/bookclubonmain.com\/products\/a-wrinkle-in-time-9780312367541","provider":"Book Club On Main","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
