Bono on Bono: Conversations with Michka Assayas, Paperback / softback Book

Bono on Bono: Conversations with Michka Assayas Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Bono is one of the most influential musicians at work today.

Over the past twenty-five years his band, U2, have sold a staggering 130 million albums and collected 14 Grammys.

Their success has made Bono one of the most recognisable faces in the world. Here, in a series of conversations with his friend, the music journalist, Michka Assayas, Bono reflects on his transformation from extrovert singer of a small, Irish, post-punk band into an international rock star.

Along the way he speaks candidly about his childhood, about his mother's death, about his Christian faith and about his difficult relationship with his father, who died recently.

Bono also speaks passionately about how he has used his fame as a platform to campaign fervently on a range of global issues, and why these issues - which include the IRA ceasefire, Third World debt and, most recently, the growing AIDS crisis in Africa - are so important to each of us. Intimate, humorous, and fiercely opinionated, BONO ON BONO is Bono's story in his own words.

It will fascinate and challenge fans of U2 and general readers alike.
