Pope Francis smiles as he talks with Archbishop Georg Ganswein at the end of his Wednesday general audience in Saint Peter's square at the Vatican, on June 15, 2016.VATICAN CITY - Although Pope Francis often compared having former Pope Benedict living in the Vatican to having a grandfather in the house, a book by Benedict's closest aide shows what he says were strains while two men wearing white lived in the tiny city-state.
In the book, due to be in bookstores on Jan 12, Ganswein gives an insider's view of Benedict's election in 2005, his 2013 decision to become the first pope in 600 years to step down, his post-papacy years, his sickness and his final hours. Ganswein says Benedict, in his annotated response to Francis, critiqued the way Francis had responded to questions on abortion and homosexuality.
Ganswein writes that he was never able to reach a "a climate of trust" with the new pope and that Francis probably let him keep the prefect's job for so long out of respect for Benedict. Ganswein writes that Francis ordered him to "not come back to work tomorrow" but to look after the ailing Benedict full time.
