psalmós
Some of the most beautiful passages from the bestseller WerkZeuge and new reflections—accompanied by watercolors by the renowned artist Andreas Felger.
In August 2025, my new book was published: psalmós – The Wisdom of the Psalms. For those who open themselves to the Psalms, they become, in a special way, an inner therapist. They become healing forces, sources of joy, and teachers of the inner life.
The publisher on my new book:
Some of the most beautiful passages from the bestseller WerkZeuge and new reflections by violin maker Martin Schleske—accompanied by watercolors by the renowned artist Andreas Felger.
The biblical Psalms are a collection of songs and prayers, often written in poetic language, that have been offering comfort and wisdom to people for more than 2,000 years. This book brings together some of the most beautiful Psalms, accompanied by reflections by Martin Schleske and watercolors by Andreas Felger.
The Psalms say: Take your life seriously! But love it, too! And: Suffering, too, may be part of your love. Above this great primal experience of the human soul—which finds its voice in the Psalms—certainly stands this word from Psalm 16: “You show me the path of life.” What era could do without exactly this happening?”
Martin Schleske in the book’s foreword
