Days of penance

The Economist reviews Pope Francis: Untying the Knots, by Paul Vallely.
"what this book does demonstrate is that Pope Francis is a tougher, more complex figure than meets the eye. A turbulent life has given the pontiff a subtle sense of the realities of power, and the courage to act on it."
Amazon presently says U.S. publication is scheduled for September 24, 2013.

  1. ive been surprised with the economist over the last year they have been very good with such posts. I was also surprised that just after his elevation to pontiff, Francis visited a church with the picture of Our Lady untier of knots which is an often ignored but wonderful piece of grace
