About the book: 2019 / Having decided to live with her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Murry, Polly O'Keeffe was going to spend this time with benefit and pleasure. Educational conversations, meetings with pleasant neighbors, an old acquaintance whose visits are of a pleasant romantic nature... It would seem that nothing foretells trouble. However, Merry's house is a kind of island in time, washed by the currents of the past and present. And one fine day this stream picks up Polly and throws her into the world that existed in this place three thousand years before her birth. And here Polly also finds friends and even an ardent admirer. However, the adventure threatens not only to drag on, but also to turn into disaster when the drought-weary tribe decides to bring the long-awaited rain. And in those distant times, weather control took very dangerous forms... This book is the shock completion of the “Quintet of Time” cycle, begun by the famous bestseller “A Wrinkle in Time,” filmed in 2018 by Walt Disney Studios. For the first time in Russian!
