About the book

The Confessions of Saint Augustine is one of the most influential works of Christian literature and one of the earliest great autobiographies. Augustine reflects on his youth, intellectual struggles, moral failings and eventual conversion to Christianity. His famous account of spiritual transformation develops into profound reflections on memory, time, desire and the human relationship with God, giving the work both theological importance and remarkable psychological depth.
