ÉXITO DE VENTAS DEL NEW YORK TIMESESPERANZA es la primera autobiografía de un pontífice que se publica en la historia.
Rico en revelaciones, anécdotas y reflexiones iluminadoras, ESPERANZA es un libro de memorias emocionante, tremendamente humano y conmovedor, no exento de toques de auténtico sentido del humor; una obra que es al mismo tiempo la «novela de una vida» y un testamento moral y espiritual destinado a conquistar a los lectores de todo el mundo y a convertirse en un legado de esperanza para las generaciones futuras. El Papa Francisco tenía la intención de que esta excepcional memoria se publicara solo después de su muerte, pero las necesidades de nuestro tiempo y el Año Jubilar de la Esperanza de 2025 lo impulsaron a publicar este preciado legado antes. Ahora, el libro se erige como su testamento: el legado espiritual, lleno de fe, moral, social y cívico que concibió y dejó para beneficio de todos los hombres y mujeres del mundo. Una autobiografía completa cuya escritura le ha ocupado los últimos seis años. La narración comienza en los primeros años del siglo XX con las raíces italianas de la familia y la azarosa emigración de los abuelos a América Latina, y continúa con la infancia, el entusiasmo y las inquietudes de la juventud, la llamada de la vocación y la madurez, que abarca todo el pontificado. Con íntima fuerza narrativa y sin pasar por alto sus propias pasiones, Francisco afronta con franqueza en sus memorias las cuestiones más candentes de su pontificado y desarrolla con valentía, sencillez y visión de futuro los temas más controvertidos e importantes de nuestra época: guerra y paz (sin omitir los conflictos en Ucrania y Oriente Próximo), migraciones, crisis medioambiental, política social, situación de la mujer, sexualidad, desarrollo tecnológico y futuro de la Iglesia y de las religiones. La obra también contiene fotografías extraordinarias, algunas de las cuales son inéditas y pertenecen a la colección personal del pontífice. ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONS NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
Hope is the first autobiography in history ever to be published by a Pope.
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. 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. 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. 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. The book is enhanced by remarkable photographs, including private and unpublished material made personally available by Pope Francis himself.

This masterful work delves into the historical context surrounding the birth of Christ, offering a treasure trove of additional facts gleaned from meticulous research. The author's prose is as exquisite as the illustrations that adorn its pages, weaving a narrative that not only enriches our understanding of Christmas but also reaffirms the credibility of the biblical account. This book is more than just a read; it's a timeless keepsake, destined to be cherished and shared for generations to come. I wholeheartedly recommend it to fellow believers seeking deeper insights into the holiday's significance. Prepare to be enlightened and inspired!

Incredible reading
Format: Hardcover
I bought this just before Christmas when a guest speaker talked about it in our church. I immediately looked up and bought it right away. This is a quality book. Hard bound with heavy gloss paper and nice art inside and out. But the real value is inside. I couldn't put it down. If you've ever wanted to know more indepth details about the Christmas story, a detailed and true explanation of the birth of Jesus, this is the book to buy. It's worth every penny. If you've ever had questions like: why those shepherds? what made them so special? details about the "wise men", why do only Luke and Mark detail these events, why Nazareth? and so much more... buy the book! I took my book over my daughter's house for Christmas Eve with her and her kids + a few friends. They aren't all as familiar with scripture as my husband and I are, but I've insisted on continuing the tradition my mom started of reading the Christmas Story before we open any presents. I brought this book and told them a few things covered in the book... like where the manger was. When we left, I offered to leave the book if anyone wanted to look at it... one of the girls excitedly said she was hoping I would leave it. She really wanted to read it. I couldn't have been more thrilled. I would encourage anyone interested in this book to buy it, read it, and give it to someone else who will read it too. For the money, what a great witnessing tool! It's so factual, it will speak to those who are kind of "on the fence".
