Summary
Candid and fascinating, Augustine (who was an avowed hedonist before his sudden conversion) writes about faith with the reckless abandon of a lover. The fourth-century bishop of Hippo in North Africa, Augustine, wrote The confessions, the first true autobiography, to confess his sins and proclaim God's goodness. It has been a standard of spiritual literature ever since. The Confessions is both the account of Augustine's journey to the Christian faith and a compelling theology of Christian spirituality for everyone
