Saint Augustine

30To speak of Augustine of Hippo is to enter into an immense abyss in which it is not easy to touch bottom. “Thank goodness he left us his 'Confessions', which is like the logbook of all his seas, both the stormy ones of his conversion, as well as the more serene ones of his monastic life, or the fruitful ones of his episcopate,” says the author. In this book, Rafael Del Olmo Veros (Augustinian priest and graduate in Journalism) traces - with a master's hand - the human and spiritual trajectory of the great Father of the Church, trying to lead the reader along all the paths that he himself has marked with skill and precision, resorting whenever possible to his own words: those of the convert, the writer, the saint... to tell us about him, his activities, his burdens, his frustrations, his desires and his projects.
