FROM THE ACADEMY AWARD-NOMINATED SCREENWRITER OF DARKEST HOUR AND THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING COMES THE FASCINATING AND REVEALING TALE OF TWO VERY DIFFERENT MEN - BOTH OF WHOM HAPPEN TO LIVE AT THE VATICAN In February 2013, the arch-conservative Pope Benedict XVI made a startling announcement: he would resign, making him the first pope to willingly vacate his office in over 700 years. 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 onetime tango club bouncer, a passionate soccer fan, a man with the common touch. Why did Benedict walk away at the height of power, knowing his successor might be someone whose views might undo his legacy? How did Francis - who used to ride the bus to work back in his native Buenos Aires - adjust to life as leader to a billion followers? If, as the Church teaches, the pope is infallible, how can two living popes who disagree on almost everything both be right? Having immersed himself in these mens lives to write the screenplay for The Two Popes, Anthony McCarten masterfully weaves their stories into one gripping narrative. From Benedict and Franciss formative experiences in war-torn Germany and Argentina to 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 Two Popes glitters with the darker and the lighter details of one of the worlds most opaque but significant institutions. หนังสือใหม่ นำเข้าจากต่างประเทศ พร้อมส่งจากไทย กรุณาทักแชทสอบถามสต็อกก่อนคลิกสั่ง เนื่องจากนำเข้าแค่ 1-2 เล่มต่อเรื่องเท่านั้นค่ะ ตัดรอบ 17.00 น. > Drop off 1-2 วันถัดไป จัดส่งด่วน ทั่วไทย กรุณารอรับโทรศัพท์มือถือ จากพนักงานจัดส่ง ติดตามหนังสือ กรุณาแชทคุยกับ Shopee call center โดยตรง ขอบคุณค่ะ
