The wish of Pope Francis was for HOPE, on which he has been working for six years, to be
published posthumously. However, with the Jubilee Year of Hope coming in 2025 and the
pressing needs of our times have urged Pope Francis to share this personal legacy now.
HOPE is the revelatory first-ever autobiography to be published by a sitting Pope.
Beginning in the early years of the twentieth century, Pope Francis tells the story of his
life from his childhood in Buenos Aires to his calling and the whole of his papacy to the
present day, while reflecting on controversial questions from global conflicts to the future
of the C hurch, and discussing his personal passions from football to tango.
HOPE is both powerful and intimate, inspiring and full of stories never told before. It is 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 represent his legacy of hope for future
generations.
