Couverture un peu salie.En 1925, la mort du directeur de La NRF avait relancé la «guerre de religion», qui, dans les Lettres françaises, se poursuivait «d'agonie en agonie». Contre Gide et Martin du Gard, qui prêtaient leur incroyance au défunt, Mauriac, dans l'hommage publié par la revue, avait pris parti, dès le titre transparent, repris ici pour son premier chapitre: «Anima naturaliter christiana». Le second emprunte celui de l'essai posthume de Rivière, écrit pendant sa captivité en Allemagne: À la trace de Dieu. Le «tourment» venait de la difficulté à concilier une «exigence désespérée de bonheur» avec celle d'une foi un moment vacillante, mais qui finissait par triompher du doute et des tentations. La dédicace à Gérard Bauër honore un journaliste, dont Mauriac éprouvera la fidélité et le courage.
