Description

Magda Goebbels, wife of Joseph Goebbels, mother of six children, one of Hitler’s closest confidantes — and the woman who ultimately chose death together with her children in the Führerbunker. “She was the First Lady of the Third Reich — unofficially, but without a doubt within the Nazi propaganda machine — while others might have given that title to Emmy Göring, the second wife of Hermann Göring.”

But how did a well-bred Berlin girl from a strict bourgeois family become the “queen” of National Socialist Germany? Why was she drawn to power, to cult-like political movements, and how did her life intertwine religion, politics, and destructive fanaticism?
