2001br. Jean Guitton incontrò Marthe Robin per caso, accompagnando da lei il suo amico ateo, il medico e filosofo Couchoud. Rimase folgorato dal genio di questa umile contadina, che, dal suo letto di dolore e di malattia, illuminava e consigliava le migliaia di persone che venivano a lei attratte dalla sua testimonianza. L'amicizia tra Marthe Robin e Jean Guitton durerà venticinque anni, fino alla morte di Marthe. Ed è proprio questa amicizia che dà autorevolezza alla biografia attraverso la quale l'autore evidenzia e guida a comprendere l'esperienza mistica di Marthe e le sue manifestazioni fisiche collocate all'interno di un orizzonte storico, filosofico, evolutivo e spirituale.
