In 2013, Argentinian philosopher Omar Bello (1964-2015) published an explosive book about Jorge Bergoglio, who at the time had just been elected "Pope" Francis. Entitled El Verdadero Francisco ("The Real Francis"), the book claims to present unknown facts about what kind of person the former "Archbishop" of Buenos Aires really is. The book's subtitle reads in English: "The private life, psychology, secrets, and doubts of the Argentinian Pope. By the philosopher who knows him best." What makes the work more interesting still is the fact that its author was a friend, not an enemy, of Francis.
