“You are my Lord, because You have no need of my goodness.”
Designed to show the details of the soul’s progress, from enjoyment of the beauties outside itself to a study of its own nature and finally to joy in the knowledge of God, Confessions was the first work in literature to be concerned entirely with an introspective analysis of the author’s own spiritual and emotional experiences. Its original title was Confessions in Thirteen Books and it was composed to be read out loud with each book being a complete unit.
The work outlines Augustine's sinful youth and his conversion to Christianity. It is widely seen as the first Western autobiography ever written, and was an influential model for Christian writers throughout the following 1,000 years of the Middle Ages.
Confessions is presented here with links to free complete audio recordings as well as a stunning image gallery showcasing art inspired by Augustine’s work over the centuries with examples from Benozzo Gozzoli, Ary Scheffer, Fra Angelico, Jaume Huguet, Carlo Crivelli, Philippe de Champaigne, Peter Paul Rubens, Vittore Carpaccio and Antonio Rodriguez.

Confessions Illustrated edition by St Augustine Carlo Crivelli E B Pusey Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews
It has been a while since I read ‘Confessions’ and was delighted to find this enhanced E-book edition. The formatting looks great on my . The highlight is the picture gallery with a wealth of amazing art depicting Saint Augustine. This is a nice package for 99c. Recommended.
I prefer Outler's translation to this one. Poetry is always present in Augustines writing, even in didactic passages, but especially in his prayers. This version may be literally accurate -I don't know, but Outler's translation seems much more poetic to me. Augustine was a emotional man with an eye for beauty. Translations must be above all poetic, I think.
Example
Book VI location 1518 (part of last sentence) ....and say "Run; I will carry you; yea I will bring you through; there also I will carry you."
Outler ..."Run and I will carry you. Yea I will carry you home and then I will set you free. "
Great book for any christian or new convert to the faith.
