Augustine of Hippo
The long walk home
Eighteen episodes on a son of Roman Numidia, born in three hundred and fifty-four, who wrote the first interior memoir in Western literature. From the schools of Madauros to the gardens of Milan, from the unnamed concubine to the penitential Psalms tacked to the bedroom wall as the Vandals besieged Hippo.
