ENDURES
Reviews
Lucy Sussex, The Age, 30 November 2008
"There are many memoirs of growing up Catholic in Australia and equally many by people who chose the religious life, then abandoned it. The edge that author Colette Livermore has here is that her vocation led her to Mother Teresa of Calcutta's Missionaries of Charity."

Gillian Dooley, Radio Adelaide, 29 November 2008
"Colette Livermore abandoned her prospects of career in medicine to join the Missionaries of Charity, Mother Teresa’s religious order, at the age of eighteen. Seduced by the documentary Something Beautiful for God, Livermore left her family and friends to take the fourfold vows of poverty, chastity, humility and obedience. Mother Teresa is such a byword for saintliness that it comes as a bit of a shock to hear the insider’s version in Livermore’s book, Hope Endures."
