Overview
Every so often I need OUT. .Ā .Ā . My special place is a small brook in a green glade, a circle of quiet from which there is no visible sign of human beings. .Ā .Ā . I sit there, dangling my legs and looking through the foliage at the sky reflected in the water, and things slowly come back into perspective.

Set against the lush backdrop of Crosswicks, her familyās farmhouse in rural Connecticut, this deeply personal memoir details Madeleine LāEngleās journey to find balance between her career as a Newbery Medalāwinning author and her responsibilities as a wife, mother, teacher, and Christian.

As she considers the roles that creativity, family, citizenship, and faith play in her life, LāEngle reveals the complexities behind the author whose worksāhonored with the National Book Award, the Lewis Carroll Shelf Award, and countless other prizesāhave long been cherished by children and adults alike. Written in simple, profound, and often humorous prose, A Circle of Quiet is an insightful womanās elegant search for the meaning and purpose of her life.
