Why people recommend it

Fatal discord by Michael Massing is an extensive dual biography that explores the tumultuous intellectual and religious relationship between Erasmus and Martin Luther during the turbulent era of the Reformation. On an episode of The Book Review titled Big New Biographies of Two Big American Lives, broadcast on July 18, 2024, John Williams brought up the massive volume during the discussions. Later, on an episode titled Talking About the 10 Best Books of 2018, released on the same date, John Williams recommended the publication by Michael Massing as his non-fiction runner-up pick for listeners seeking an in-depth historical narrative. Throughout these segments, the speaker noted the immense scope of the nearly one-thousand-page book, which delves deeply into the theological and philosophical battles that fractured Western Christianity. The publication received praise for its meticulous research and its ability to bring two towering historical figures vividly to life against the backdrop of a changing world. By featuring this monumental study, the podcast provided listeners with a thorough appreciation of a pivotal historical epoch and the complex personalities who defined the religious conflicts of sixteenth-century Europe.
