Pope Francis Life and Revolution a biography of Jorge Bergoglio, by Elisabetta Pique (read 7 May 2015) This book has some interesting details about the Pope. It is written by an Argentine journalist, whose two children were baptized by the Pope, so it contains only words defending and praising Pope Francis. Whether due to the author or the translators, it does not read smoothly. It is often written in the present tense. and is not organized very systematically There are annoying things such as in one sentence saying Cardinal Bergoglio "always" attended a certain event, and in the next sentence saying he missed attending one year. If he always attended. he could not miss a year, could he?.But there is much to admire about the subject of the book, and it is good to read about his virtues and enthusiasms.

In Italy, they call him il Papa, which means "The Father." Until his unprecedented election, author and friend Elisabetta Piqué called him Padre Jorge. He may have changed his name to become Pope Francis, but it did not change their friendship. Since Jorge Mario Bergoglio became Pope Francis in 2013, countless books have been written to help the world understand this deeply complex yet simple servant of God. What sets Pope Francis: Life and Revolution apart from all other biographies of Pope Francis is the careful research and original investigation behind it, along with the fact that it is written by an internationally respected journalist--Elisabetta Piqué--who has remained close to the Pope since first meeting him back in 2001. Over 75 individuals were interviewed for Pope Francis: Life and Revolution, including lay people, priests, bishops, and cardinals who have known or worked with Francis at various times in his life. Insights from these people, as well as from friends and family members, allow us to see a profoundly personal side of the Pope. His humility and humanity, courage and conviction, and warmth and wisdom are revealed as Piqué shares little-known episodes from Francis's life. With a foreword by Cardinal Seán O'Malley, O.F.M. Cap., Pope Francis: Life and Revolution is the definitive resource and narrative of a man personally known by few and revered and respected by many. Pope Francis: Life and Revolution reveals a man consistent in his beliefs and actions. He is a spiritual leader unwavering in his love for God, whose inner joy and peace move him--and can inspire us--to serve the least, the last, and the lost. No library descriptions found. |
