Jesus: The Man Who Lives is a powerful book. Malcolm Muggeridge writes with tremendous passion and lucidity. This is an inspiring book because Muggeridge makes faith in Jesus so tangible and compelling. He is cynical and witty at times, but he is also extraordinarily faithful to his Lord and even to his Church. Muggeridge was a convert to Christianity, having been a Communist earlier in his life.
The illustrations in the book are nice, if haphazard, but they do form a suitable complement to the text. You cannot finish this work without feeling some reverence, especially if you are a believer. Muggeridge's enthusiasm for Jesus is evident on every page. He is a dazzling stylist, but doesn't allow this to overpower his narrative.
