My brother, the Pope

Memories of a lifetime, from his childhood to his papacy, with previously unpublished details of Joseph Ratzinger's vocation. No one knows Pope Benedict XVI better, no one is closer to him than his own brother. In an interview with the German journalist Michael Hesemann, Georg Ratzinger tells us frankly about the private life of the Supreme Pastor of the Church: what his brother Joseph was like as a child and how he found the path to faith, how the family overcame the hell of National Socialism and war, why he developed the desire to serve the Church and how he took on the challenges of the ministries entrusted to him throughout his life with a conscious sense of duty and with joy.
