<p>Describing Tolstoy''s crisis of depression and estrangement from the world, <i>A Confession</i> is an autobiographical work of exceptional emotional honesty. It describes his search for ''a practical religion not promising future bliss but giving bliss on earth''. Although the <i>Confession</i> led to his excommunication, it also resulted in a large following of Tolstoyan Christians springing up throughout Russia and Europe. <br><br>Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves ¿ and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives ¿ and destroyed them. Now Penguin brings you the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.</p>
