Our friend Amy over at Charlotte was both has pointed out some interesting news about a new volume of Pope Benedict XVI called Questions and Answers.
This is a book of, you guessed it, Q and A sessions Pope Benedict had with various groups, young people, priests, etc.
It was published by Our Sunday Visitor.
Apparently this little book has received some recognition.
It is good that people will be able to get a feeling for how Pope Benedict, unlike any of his predecessors breaks the mould in such encounters. You get a real sense of the fellow when he speaks like this.
On a personal note, I did a lot of the footnotes for the book, mostly explaining Latin terms or phrases used by the Pope and left in Latin in the English translation.
It is great to be able to participate in a good project like this. I hope for a long Pontificate and, therefore, more of these volumes in the future!
It would be a good book for young people.
