Hope Larson on the Thought Process Behind the Graphic Novel Adaptation of A Wrinkle in Time

October 26, 2012

In an interview with Publishers Weekly, Hope Larson talks about her thought process on adapting Madeline L'Engle's A Wrinkle in Time into a graphic novel. Larson deliberately wanted a long book because she felt that anything short would not have been true to L'Engle's original story.

"I didn't want to end up with an adaptation that felt truncated, or relied heavily on caption boxes to get you from point A to point B in the most economical way. There's no way to tesser through A Wrinkle in Time.If you take shortcuts in a book like this, you damage it."
