Product Description
Synopsis
Does my life hold any significance that will outlast my death? This familiar question haunted Tolstoy, even after his grand achievements in the form of War and Peace and Anna Karenina. His A Confession marks the 51-year-old author's movement from the pursuit of aesthetic ideals toward matters of religious and philosophical consequence. Authentic and moving, it recaptures his heartfelt re-examination of Christian orthodoxy and subsequent spiritual awakening. Generations of readers have been inspired by this timeless account of an individual's struggle for faith and a meaningful existence. Unabridged republication of the Aylmer Maude translation as published by Oxford University Press, London, 1921.
