Jack joins us for the for a very special YA episode of Bistro Californium to discuss the very first young adult fiction novel, Madeleine L'Engle's extraordinary A WRINKLE IN TIME- an acid-soaked Christian allegory in the tradition of C. S. Lewis and David Lindsay, dramatising a spiritual battle between the forces of light (creativity, individualism, love) and darkness (the dreadful conformity of IT, the Ava DuVernay film adaptation)

Along the way they discuss early encounters with art in childhood and discover a mutual fantasy of leaving it all behind to enter the placid & relaxing world of marine biology

"It was a dark and stormy night"

"There is such a thing as a tesseract"
