Considered to be the first autobiographical work in history, this timeless book is completely applicable to everyone who has experienced the struggle between good and evil in his own soul. Saint Augustine, born in Constantine in 354 C.E., was raised by a devout Christian mother. He abandoned the Christianity of his upbringing and had an illegitimate son. After hearing the sermons of Ambrose, he began his great internal struggle which led to his conversion in 387 C.E. The Confessions describe his conversion, shedding light on the questions that had troubled him on his way to the Cross.

Plus de cinquante ans après sa mort, Camus fait toujours l'objet de nombreuses controverses. Auteur qui ne laisse pas indifférent, la pluralité de ses combats et la force de ses convictions ont parfois souffert de détournements et de simplifications qui posent sujet à débat.
