JESUS REDISCOVERED

by Malcolm Muggeridge ‧ RELEASE DATE: Sept. 5, 1969

Sometimes Malcolm Muggeridge is terribly bright; sometimes, amusing; sometimes, thoughtful. And sometimes he is too heavyhanded to be any of these. There is Muggeridge in his New Statesman mood with ""My True Love Hath My Heart""; and then with ""Is There a God?"" which, though from the same publication, is more like the Ladies' Home Journal (and, in fact, it Was reprinted there). Some of the best things in the book are those which are previously unpublished (ten of the twenty-three pieces), such as the title essay and ""Four Sermons"" Where spontaneity, an unusual point of view, and sprightliness of style show the author at his most enjoyable. All in all, however, this is a pretty mixed bag, with some of Muggeridge's best and some of his worst lumped into an uneven but readable volume.
