  • Publication Details

    Book, Greenwood Press, 2004

  • Links

  • Description

    In this new biography, students will follow Agnes Gonxha Bojaxhiu from her humble Albanian birth to worldwide celebrity as Mother Teresa. Her vision to live and work among the “poorest of the poor” as one of them led to the founding of a new order that tended to society’s outcasts. The biography suggests that she transcended her ordinariness with a singular belief that she was called to life’s work. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)

Becoming Madame Mao

  • Becoming Madame Mao

  • Attribution

    Anchee Min

  • Publication Details

    Book, Houghton Mifflin, 2000

  • Description

    In a sweeping, erotically charged story that moves gracefully from the intimately personal to the great stage of world history, Anchee Min renders a powerful tale of passion, betrayal, and survival and creates a finely nuanced and always ambiguous portrait of one of the most fascinating, and vilified, women of the twentieth century. The great revolutionary leader proved to be an inattentive husband with a voracious appetite for infidelity, but the couple stayed together through the Communist victory, the disastrous Great Leap Forward, and the chaos of the Cultural Revolution.

    Linda Dahl

Linda Dahl, granted unprecedented access to the large Williams archive, has given us the whole of Williams’s very full life, from her often harrowing days on the road to her tumultuous marriages and love affairs, from the ups and downs of her unique fifty-year career to the remarkable spirituality that came to inform both her daily life and her music.
