A review by cronchychomp
A Confession by Leo Tolstoy

3.0

most certainly a good essay and something that I wish was more widespread among bookshelves. what Tolstoy grapples with is certainly relatable and I imagine that most people struggle with the end of life. however, I am not altogether convinced by Tolstoy's final leap, that of believing in God because he is afraid. that is no good reason to back up your faith, and so my own search for meaning and peace trucks onward.
