Madeleine L'Engle's #scififantasy novel "A Wrinkle in Time" has cover art which always intrigued, and no one ever knew the story behind it. Amory Sivertson and Emily Jankowski of #Boston 's #NPR affiliate WBUR tracked down the artist in an endless months-long quest and solved the mystery. Great listen.
Amory: I responded to Sarah's post, saying, "I have at least one string I'd like to pull on this."
Ben: And that was 8 months ago.
Amory: It was a solid, like, 4 months ago. And little did I know... that string would lead to another... and another... and another... until I was on my own full-blown months-long quest through time and space to find an artist credit gone mysteriously missing, and to understand the forces that have left this cover's artist — AND countless others — unknown for DECADES.
