《奧古斯丁 懺悔錄》(Augustine’s Confessions)

Sex, feasting and blood sports: Adam Phillips writes about Peter Constantine’s new translation of Augustine’s ‘Confessions’.
‘We are in no doubt about the excitement the young Augustine really felt. His descriptions in Confessions of the baffling and unbaffled pleasure he took in sex, friendship, competition, cruelty, conversation, stealing, delinquency, reading, learning, feasting, entertainment, blood sports, and above all in himself and who he happened to be (his serial conversions from one stimulant to another), have always been reason enough to read the book.’
