A CIRCLE OF QUIET
(Crosswicks Journal, Book 1)

Madeleine L’Engle

In the final segment of this totally involving personal communication from one of the greatest authors of our time, L’Engle shares a deep emotional insight:

“There is no more beautiful witness to the mystery of the word made flesh than a baby’s naked body. I remember with sensory clarity sitting with one of my babies on my lap and running my hand over the incredibly pure smoothness of the bare back and thinking that any mother, holding her child thus, must have at least an echo of what it is like to be Mary; that in touching the particular created matter, flesh, of our child, we are touching the Incarnation.”

This is the first book of the Crosswicks Journal, an engaging chronicle of Madeleine L’Engle's experiences as a wife, mother, author, neighbor, and grandmother – identities she freely explores with the reader, who can’t help experiencing her gift of spiritual intuition.

In the subsequent volumes of the Crosswicks Journal, L’Engle invites the reader to experience even more intimately the various aspects of her life and career.
