Reviews" Hope vividly recreates the colorful world where the young Jorge Mario Bergoglio grew up." --The New York Times, " Hope vividly recreates the colorful world where the young Jorge Mario Bergoglio grew up." --The New York Times "Vivid and sensitive . . . Francis is keenly conscious of his roots in a history of migration and a society of very diverse cultural strands. . . . Powerful and moving . . . This book is at its best when the Pope speaks directly from his first-hand experience of contact with the vulnerable, and he has a gift for bringing these encounters vividly to life." --The New Statesman "[An] in-depth look at the life of the pontiff . . . Readers will find this autobiography replete with intriguing and sometimes surprising and even disturbing stories from the pope's life. . . . Francis' work is honest, interesting, and of historic value." --Kirkus Reviews "For fans of Conclave, there's quite the inside story of the real thing in 2013 in the Pope's new autobiography. . . . The Pope who emerges from this book is an attractive figure." -- The London Standard, " Hope vividly recreates the colorful world where the young Jorge Mario Bergoglio grew up." --The New York Times "Vivid and sensitive . . .

SynopsisNEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER * Pope Francis originally intended this exceptional memoir to appear only after his death, but the needs of our times and the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope moved him to make this precious legacy available sooner. Now, the book stands as his testament; the spiritual, faith-filled, as well as moral, social, and civic legacy that he envisioned and left for the benefit of all the men and women of the world. " Hope vividly recreates the colorful world where the young Jorge Mario Bergoglio grew up."-- The New York Times Hope is the first autobiography in history ever to be published by a Pope. Written over six years, this complete autobiography starts in the early years of the twentieth century, with Pope Francis's Italian roots and his ancestors' courageous migration to Latin America, continuing through his childhood, the enthusiasms and preoccupations of his youth, his vocation, adult life, and the whole of his papacy up to the present day. In recounting his memories with intimate narrative force (not forgetting his own personal passions), Pope Francis deals unsparingly with some of the crucial moments of his papacy and writes candidly, fearlessly, and prophetically about some of the most important and controversial questions of our present times: war and peace (including the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East), migration, environmental crisis, social policy, the position of women, sexuality, technological developments, the future of the Church and of religion in general. Hope includes a wealth of revelations, anecdotes, and illuminating thoughts. It is a thrilling and very human memoir, moving and sometimes funny, which represents the "story of a life" and, at the same time, a touching moral and spiritual testament that will fascinate readers throughout the world and will be Pope Francis's legacy of hope for future generations. The book is enhanced by remarkable photographs, including private and unpublished material made personally available by Pope Francis himself., NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - Pope Francis originally intended this exceptional memoir to appear only after his death, but the needs of our times and the 2025 Jubilee Year of Hope moved him to make this precious legacy available sooner.
