A Confession by Leo Tolstoy
5.0
hopeful informative inspiring reflective medium-paced

This feels so much like Surprised by Joy by CS Lewis. However, Lewis came to the definitive answer of Christianity while Tolstoy ends on a less decided note. 

He says there is much truth in Theism, and Christianity in particular, but that the Orthodox Church he grew up in also has much falsehood that he can't reconcile. 

I wonder if he ever published anything later in his life where he'd reached some definite conclusions.
