Malcolm Muggeridge

Malcolm Muggeridge (1903-1990) was an English journalist, satirist, and critic known for his anti-communist stance. He initially embraced communism but became disillusioned after living in the Soviet Union in the 1930s. During World War II, he served as a soldier and spy for the British government in East Africa and Paris. Muggeridge later converted to Christianity and played a significant role in bringing Mother Teresa to the attention of the Western world. He was also a vocal critic of the sexual revolution and drug use. Muggeridge's detailed diaries, published in 1981 as 'Like It Was: The Diaries of Malcolm Muggeridge,' offer insights into his experiences and perspectives.
