More about the book

At seventy-four, Madeleine L'Engle undertook a daring rafting trip to Antarctica, inspired by the continent's breathtaking beauty. This adventure prompted her to explore the concept of icons as everyday "windows to God" in her work, Penguins and Golden Calves. Through her reflections, she discusses how embracing these symbols can cultivate a profound and spiritual faith, offering readers a unique perspective on the intersection of nature, spirituality, and personal growth.
