A reflection on the author's life and his search for meaning. It was somewhat ironic when Tolstoy talked about looking into the past, into the 'sages' wisdom' to find the answer to his crisis, only to be disappointed; that was exactly what I was doing reading this book. Obviously, it's silly to expect the meaning of life to be in one Russian autobiography but I have to admit, he lost me when his eventual conclusion was "God."
It felt like he was simply inventing a definition for God that would satisfy him - because he, as detailed in multiple chapters, couldn't accept the inherent unreasonableness of religion - because he had no other answers to life's biggest questions. Kind of a cop-out, but whatever floats your boat, man.

It made me question a lot without actually giving me the answers. Feels weird giving a star rating to such a deeply personal essay but it is very well deserved.
Kind of blue balled us by leaving out his beliefs at the end there and just ripping out a sick dream metaphor but go off I guess

A confession by Leo Tolstoy deals with the idea of philosophy, religion and atheism. The book is also an autobiographical account of the author's own struggle with these issues.
Leo Tolstoy asks himself the question about meaning of life and fails to answer it thus turns to various ideologies to find the answer. He finds a sort of comfort in atheism and philosophy but still his question remains unanswered and he finds himself in despair wanting to kill himself. And when he's on the verge of suicide he finally finds the answer of his questions:

Tolstoy in the beginning tries philosophy to explain the meaning of life and he realises that life is evil, and we eventually have to die and he realises how meaningless life is in that case. He quotes Socrates, Schopenhauer and Solomon:

He uses the fable of dragon in the well : a man who is chased by a beast into a well, at the bottom of which is a dragon.The man clings to a branch and licks honey from it while the branch is being eaten by two mice. The mice represent the time which is taking him closer to death and the honey represents the comforts of life. But once a man is aware of the mice an the bottom(death), he can no longer enjoy the honey(life). Based on this Tolstoy classifies people into 4 categories:
1.The ignorant people, these people are ignorant of the mice and the dragon at bottom and continue to live without consciousness of impeding doom.
