Leído por Dory

(4.9 stars; 7 reviews)

This is a fictionalized biography of the wife of the reformer Dr. Martin Luther. In the author's words, he hopes that "people may learn to know the wife of its greatest man,—not by name only, but as her husband's 'helpmeet,' in the truest sense of the word, as a pattern of domestic virtue, and as a pearl among women."

(5 stars)

I really loved reading this book. I had recently read Eric Metaxis’ biography of Martin Luther, so a fictionalized biography of his wife—a former nun—was too good to pass up. The author includes many letters between the sweethearts, so we know the fiction is based on real history.
