The book includes three exegetical works by the Danish thinker and religious writer Søren Kierkegaard. Unlike the philosophical works that S. Kierkegaard published under various pseudonyms, these works were published by him under his own name. Poetic and deep, they are addressed to “that one and only” whom S. Kierkegaard “with joy and gratitude calls his reader” - to the reader from whom not a set of knowledge is required, but a living presence; from whom it is required that he himself be real.
