After reading the text I noticed that in each of the time periods where Charles Wallace goes within another, there is someone whose name is either a form of Charles or Wallace.

Amazingly Charles Wallace comes to understand and overcome his own disregard for "individuals" that are bound to time. In each chapter the Rune is being said I wondered what symbolism would this have on Charles
