The Confessions of Saint Augustine
is a timeless classic of Western literature and Christian thought. Written in the late 4th century, it is a deeply personal account of Augustine's early life, his intellectual and spiritual journey, and his conversion to Christianity. Addressed as a prayer to God, the book explores themes of sin, grace, love, and the search for truth.
This edition, translated by Edward Bouverie Pusey, offers a faithful and eloquent rendering of Augustine's profound insights. 'The Confessions' remains a powerful and influential work, cherished for its honesty, its theological depth, and its enduring relevance to the human experience.
