Calvin
O'Keefe is a character featured in a number of books by . We first encounter Calvin in the
book, , when he is a poor student. He is a charming and friendly young man,
but he feels misunderstood and out of place with his family. Calvin is deeply impacted by the
struggles he has faced growing up in a neglectful family and is very empathetic, always seeking
to be respectful to others. He works hard to provide for himself to compensate for what his
parents have not provided him.
Throughout the stories by L'Engle, Calvin
grows up to become a marine biologist and marries the , Meg. Calvin and Meg share a telepathic
bond called kything and understand each other better than anyone else. Though
Calvin's presence as an active character throughout the Time series is a
little spotty, he is mentioned regularly with regards to his work on marine
life.
