A Confession

A Confession is a beautiful and thorough dive into that timeless question, “What is the meaning of life?”.  After fifty-one years of life and during the height of his fame, Tolstoy began to question everything.  Through a creative and insightful analogy, Tolstoy depicts the crisis of reality that emerges when one questions the existence of God.  An existence that he had been taught since childhood and had followed along with his whole life.  He uses deduction and logic, rationality and reason, then allows for emotions and reactions and is ultimately able to land on the answers to his questions.  A decades long internal debate all laid out in this thoughtful and moving work.  Anyone who has struggled not only with faith, but with depression, personal identity, or existential confusion and contradictions will find a friend and ally in Leo Tolstoy.
