Descripción de contraportada
"Garry Wills rescues Augustine's Confessions from its posterity, peeling away layer after layer of anachronistic reactions to the text and providing an invaluable aid to readers. A master restorer, Wills gives us a picture carefully cleaned of a millennium-and-a-half of varnish. More than that: he helps us appreciate what the original colors actually meant to those who first made contact with Augustine's strange book. This is vintage Wills--punchy, clear, well-argued, and beautifully translated, both linguistically and culturally."--Peter Brown, Princeton University, author of Augustine of Hippo: A Biography
"This is a sensitive, informed, and just appreciation of and introduction to the Confessions. It does justice both to the appealing narrative of sin and fall that preoccupies most readers and to the more complicated structure and ending of the whole work. Few books on the Confessions rival the excellence or concision of this one."--James J. O'Donnell, Georgetown University, author of Augustine: A New Biography
