Description
The legendary author’s passionate and iconoclastic writings – on issues of faith, immortality, freedom, violence, and morality--reflect his intellectual search for truth and a religion firmly grounded in reality. However, despite his success with works like War and Peace and Anna Karenina, Leo Tolstoy, at age 51, looked back on his life and considered himself a failure. A Confession provides valuable insight into Tolstoy’s thoughts and ideas as his later philosophical ideas began to evolve and change.
