Bono. God's Favorite Son
Description
U2, led by the charismatic Bono, revolutionized the popular music scene in the 1980s, pulling it out of a post-disco slump and making it cool to care about the underdog, activism, and spirituality. This unauthorized biography of Bono uses previously unreleased footage, rare photos, and interviews with friends to tell the Irish rock star's story, from his early days up to his international success in music as well as philanthropy.
