From the acclaimed screenwriter of The Theory of Everything and Darkest Hour comes a captivating, revealing, and gripping tale of two very different men whose destinies converge with each other—they both live in the Vatican—and the wider world. On February 28, 2013, a 600-year-old tradition was shattered when the conservative Pope Benedict XVI made a startling announcement. He would resign. Reeling from the news, the College of Cardinals rushed to Rome to congregate in the Sistine Chapel to pick his successor. Their unlikely choice? Francis, the first non-European pope in 1,200 years, a one-time tango club bouncer, a passionate football fan, and a man with the common touch. How did these two men become two of the most powerful people on Earth? What is it like to be the Pope? What does the future hold for the Catholic Church and its 1 billion followers?
The Two Popes is a dual biography that masterfully combines these two popes' lives into one gripping narrative. From Benedict and Francis' experiences of war in their homelands—when they were still Joseph and Jorge—and the sexual abuse scandal that continues to rock the Church to its foundations, to the intrigue and the occasional comedy of life in the Vatican, The Pope glitters with the darker and the lighter details of life inside one of the world's most opaque but significant institutions.
