He is one of the most iconic artists in music in the world and thousands and thousands of pages have been written about his career; however, in Surrender , it is now Bono who sits down in front of the blank page to tell us, for the first time and in the first person, the details of his formidable life and the people with whom he has shared it.
His indistinguishable voice takes us on a journey that ranges from his childhood in Dublin, through the sudden death of his mother when he was 14 and the unusual path that U2 had to take to become one of the most influential rock groups on the planet, to an examination of the more than two decades he has dedicated to activism, fighting AIDS and extreme poverty. Bono's writing, which has carried out an exercise in honest self-reflection, not devoid of a healthy sense of humor, manages to open the focus further on his life, as well as on his family, his friends and his beliefs, which have served as support, incentive and example for him throughout all these years.
