Bonus Episode: Dr. Mike Duncan discusses the science in A Wrinkle in Time
We couldn't decide what genre A Wrinkle in Time was but we definitely considered science fiction. To further explore our genre-confusion, we decided to talk to an expert about the actual math and science in A Wrinkle in Time. Is it fuzzy math? Is it fantasy? Is breathing flowers in an oxygen starved atmosphere really just a 1960s fever dream? We find out when we talk to Dr. Mike Duncan, an optical physicist with decades of experience and a personal connection to our book.
