Discussion/Analysis Prompt
Under IT’s control, Charles Wallace says the people of Camazotz are happy because they are all equal and alike. Are the people of Camazotz happy? One of Meg’s major internal and external conflicts is how she felt about being different from everyone else and how people treated her because of it. Would she have been happier on Camazotz? Based on these story elements and other evidence you find throughout the novel, what do you think is L’Engle’s message about equality in A Wrinkle in Time?
