Luther and Katharina: A Novel of Love and Rebellion

Luther and Katharina: A Novel of Love and Rebellion

A Christy Award-winning novel chronicling the forbidden romance between Martin Luther and his wife, Katharina von Bora, set against the Protestant Reformation of the sixteenth century.

She was a nun of noble birth. He was a heretic, a reformer, and an outlaw of the Holy Roman Empire. Â

In the 16th century, nun Katharina von Boraâ€™s fate fell no further than the Abbey. Until she read the writings of Martin Luther. His sweeping Catholic church reformationâ€”condemning a cloistered life and promoting the goodness of marriageâ€”awakened her desire for everything sheâ€™d been forbidden. Including Martin Luther himself.
Â
Despite the fact that the attraction and tension between them is undeniable, Luther holds fast to his convictions and remains isolated, refusing to risk anyoneâ€™s life but his own. And Katharina longs for love, but is strong-willed. She clings proudly to her class distinction, pining for nobility over the heart of a reformer. They couldnâ€™t be more different.
Â
But as the world comes tumbling down around them, and with Lutherâ€™s threatened life a constant strain, these unlikely allies forge an unexpected bond of understanding, support and love. Together, they will alter the religious landscape forever.Â
