A review by nelsonmaddaloni
The Confessions of St. Augustine by Saint Augustine of Hippo

Well this took a long time, and I read it in 21 days, more or less. This book is a bit of a dozy, but even if I didn't find myself nodding in agreement with everything being said, I found it spiritually interesting and, in places, fulfilling. It's part of a weird spiritual journey I've been on and I figured this would be something of a necessary text to read and in many ways it was. In some part an autobiography and in other parts a confession of faith, it's an interesting read for anyone who considers themselves among the faithful though I definitely think people have built upon texts such as this since then and maybe that may be more fruitful. Still, there's lessons to be gleaned here I believe. Not bad, but dry but what else did I expect?
