Jörg von Bilavsky zeigt anschaulich, mit welch skrupellosen Methoden Goebbels seinen Machtapparat aufbaute und lenkte. Zugleich erlauben die inzwischen vollständig vorliegenden Tagebücher einen Einblick in das Innere eines zutiefst zerrissenen Menschen, der seine stärkste Orientierung in Hitler fand.
