The first biography of the Pope Leo XIV and reflections on his life, his papacy and interview with people in Rome translated from French. What is the story behind this new pope? Where does he come from? What were his previous responsibilities? What do those who have worked with him think of him? Why was he chosen? What challenges await him? What can we say about the first projects he is about to launch? Who really is Leo XIV? How can we understand the life of this affable, discreet man, coming with the spirituality of Saint Augustine that underpins his life, the circumstances of this accession to the chair of Saint Peter? How do we understand the man who presented himself from the outset as an apostle of peace and love, in the troubled world of today? The future of mission and the Gospel is at stake here in this election.
