Riuscirà Papa Francesco a riformare la Curia e a stabilire la sua "Chiesa dei poveri"? O i suoi nemici prevarranno, cercando con ogni mezzo di difendere lo status quo? Passo dopo passo, il rinomato giornalista d'inchiesta Gianluigi Nuzzi segue il cammino del gesuita argentino, silenzioso ma determinato. Attraverso documenti in realtà riservati, ci offre uno sguardo unico e affascinante sul pensiero e sull'azione di questo papa rivoluzionario.
"Happiness - was it right to name it without knowing it? It sounded shameless in my mouth, like when someone shows off about knowing a celebrity and just uses their first name . . . A young orphan boy grows up in Naples, playing football, roaming the city's streets and hidden places. The older boys call him 'monkey' because he can climb anywhere. He is alone, apart from Don Gaetano, the apartment caretaker, who feeds him, teaches him to play scopa, and tells him stories about women, history and the dark secrets of Naples' past. The one day the boy sees a young girl standing at a window. It is an encounter that will haunt his life for years and, eventually, shape his destiny. Told with the simplicity of a fairy tale and the intensity of a memory, The Day Before Happinessis the story of friendship, a city and what makes us who we are."
