This vivid historical narrative is based on the life of the German church reformer Martin Luther (1483–1546), full of drama and violent passions. It is not so often that the life story of one person becomes a page in the history of mankind. But it was Martin Luther, who allowed himself to doubt what seemed beyond doubt, who managed to change the world, taking it off the hook he was caught on... “In his book, based on the script of the film of the same name with the magnificent Joseph Fiennes in leading role, I set myself the task of showing Martin Luther - a monk, scientist and reformer - not only as a theologian-preacher and a respectable father of a family, but also as a man of conscience who, having survived the strongest spiritual storms, learned to overcome his own fears and weaknesses in order to then, in the struggle with the emperor and the Pope, rise above oneself.” Guido Diekman
