Advanced Reader Copy of A Light So Lovely by Sarah Arthur

A Light So Lovely by Sarah Arthur
A Light So Lovely tells the story of the woman at the center of it all - her imagination, her faith, her pattern of defying categories, and what readers today can learn from her legacy.

I have not read A Wrinkle in Time or any other work by Madeleine L'Engle.  In my upbringing, I was told that her stories were New Age. Christians didn't read new age in the 70s. As an adult now I've  put her works on my TBR list. After reading this book, I ran to the library and picked up a copy of some of her stories.

I absolutely loved this book written about Madeleine L'Engle. The author opens your eyes and creates an understanding of why works of art and story can cause such a fuss in the world of christianity.  The book was well written. Sarah Arthur has a great understanding of the faith and science that Madeleine L'Engle wrote in both her childrens and adult book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading and learning from this book. It was well written and makes me want to read more by both Sarah Arthur and Madeleine L'Engle.
