The keyword here is: simplicity. Having just finished Padre Pio: Man of Hope by the same author, Renzo Allegri, I was inspired to purchase Teresa of the Poor. Allegri's book on Saint Pio is just right in length--not too long or short--but it is still a complete biography. The difference with Teresa of the Poor is one of scale, craft, and structure. Allegri gives an ever so brief synopsis of Mother Teresa's life, and then reverentially steps back to let this earth angel tell her own story of her work in India and beyond. This is done by printing interviews with her verbatim. Allegri sheepishly admits that he set out to write a biography, but ended up with this. It is almost like an extended article. Nevertheless, it is still good. I came to understand what it means to trust in God completely when you are doing Divine Work. One can feel the blessedness of Mother Teresa's being. And because of this, one can forgive Allegri for almost too graciously stepping aside to allow a humble servant of God speak of what is most important to her: serving the poorest of the poor.

Using an adjective such as amazing to describe the work of Mother Teresa would not be adequate. Her work through the Missionaries of Charity sets a high standard of living Chirstian life. Mother Teresa is a phenomenon because she discovered that true bliss and happiness can be found in serving others. Exstasy can be found in devoting your entire life to service. While it is difficult to understand, most of know there is something more than can be put into words about God. Mother Teresa came as close as anybody in recent times to demonstrating what can not be explained.
Renzo Allegri's biogrpahy is concise. On many levels, the biography is a failure. It spends too much time discussing Allegri's interviews with Mother Teresa. Being a modest person, she is not likely to sit and talk about herself at length. The author should have used more expansive research to find out more about her work. This is the most admired woman of the 20th Century and you can only write 135 pages about her? Many of the stories are repeated more than once which makes the author seem unfocused in the topic. The author does have some great stories of the works of Mother Teresa. The author does also give us insight into who Mother Teresa was. However, I believe their is so much more to be written about this magnificent woman.
What will stick with me most about this book is the fact that every time she care for a sick or dying person, Mother Teresa cared for them as if it was Jesus suffering in her arms. We must remember, what we do for the least of His people, you do unto Him.

This is an excellent book about the life of Mother Teresa. I knew that she had to wait 12 years to start her missions. I did not know what life was like for her for those 12 years until I read this book. It is an excellent book for those who suffer along the path that they believe God is leading them without sight of the end. This book also shows how important it is to rely on God alone for our needs and how in His time he will provide for those needs. Our ways are good but His are perfect!

This book tells the inspiring story of one of the greatest women of our time.
