The Missionary Position

I didn't know much about Mother Teresa before reading this book but I always had a feeling that her image did not match her reality. She was placed on too high of a pedestal by too many people. Hitchens does a wonderful job in this book explaining why it's better to look past the propaganda of such a well known figure. Judge someone by their actions, not just their reputation. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in looking past the mythology created around Mother Teresa, to take a deeper look at her actions instead.
