Hope: The Autobiography - by Pope Francis

• Autobiography of Pope Francis

• Never-before-seen photos provided by the Pope
• Reflections on key issues of our time and culture
• Powerful narrative and beautiful keepsake of the Holy Father

Hope is the first-ever autobiography published by a sitting pope—a deeply personal and historic work by Pope Francis. Written over six years, this compelling memoir traces his journey from his family’s Italian roots and emigration to Argentina, through his childhood and priestly vocation, to the papacy and the challenges he faced before his death on April 21, 2025.

In candid, heartfelt prose, Pope Francis opens up about his life, sharing his passions, struggles, and key moments of decision and transformation. He reflects openly on some of the most critical and controversial issues of our time, including war, peace, climate change, migration, the role of women, human sexuality, and the future of the Church.

With warmth, humility, and insight, Hope reveals not only the life story of a pope but also a moral and spiritual testament for the Church and the world. 

Full of anecdotes, reflections, and personal stories—some humorous, some moving—it offers readers a rare window into the heart and mind of a man who has become a global spiritual voice.

This edition includes never-before-seen photographs from Pope Francis’s personal collection, making Hope not only a powerful narrative but also a beautifully illustrated keepsake. A legacy of faith and encouragement for future generations.
