Private Confessions Summary

Private Confessions by Ingmar Bergman

The final novel in world renowned film-maker, Ingmar Bergman's trilogy of novels plotting the fractious marriage of his parents

Twelve years of marriage, three children, a husband, Henrik, with whom she no longer finds anything in common: Anna is at the end of her tether. Besides, she's in love - with Henrik's friend Tomas, a student-priest, who is everything her husband is not.

Based upon film-maker, Ingmar Bergman's own family life, Personal Confessions is the final part in Bergman's loose trilogy of books that started with The Best Intentions and Sunday's Children.

Private Confessions Reviews

As psychologically intricate and harshly personal as his movies * San Francisco Chronicle *
One senses that this dark gem of a novel, set in resonant prose as elegant as a classical sonata, is a catharsis for Bergman * Publishers Weekly *
Presented with a stark clarity that's reminiscent of some of the most memorable images of Bergman's films... A vibrant and moving addition to what begins to look more and more like a great work in progress * Kirkus Reviews *
