About this listen

 Leo Tolstoy's A Confession is a philosophical memoir exploring his existential crisis and search for meaning. At the height of his literary fame, Tolstoy grapples with despair, questioning life’s purpose despite wealth and success. He turns to science, philosophy, and religion but finds no satisfying answers. Ultimately, he discovers solace in the simple faith of Russian peasants, embracing a humble, God-centered life. The book reflects his spiritual awakening and rejection of materialism, paving the way for his later Christian anarchist beliefs. A Confession is a raw, introspective journey into the depths of doubt and faith. Summary by Dream AudioBooksCopyright Dream Audio Books Art Christianity Literary History & Criticism Spirituality
