Bono, the lead singer of U2, presents an honest and irreverent memoir that captures the essence of his remarkable life, the challenges he's faced, and the people who have influenced him. He reflects on his journey, expressing a desire to detail experiences previously only hinted at in his songs. The concept of "surrender" holds deep significance for him, evolving from a challenging idea in his youth in 1970s Ireland to a central theme in his life. As an iconic artist and cofounder of organizations like ONE and (RED), Bono has been the subject of extensive coverage, but this memoir allows him to share his story in his own words. He recounts his early days in Dublin, including the profound impact of losing his mother at 14, and the unlikely rise of U2 to global prominence. The book also delves into his two decades of activism against AIDS and extreme poverty, showcasing his candidness, self-reflection, and humor. The subtitle, "40 Songs, One Story," reflects the book's structure, with 40 chapters named after U2 songs. Additionally, Bono contributes 40 original drawings that enhance the narrative, providing a visual dimension to his life story.

Six Four . The nightmare no parent could endure. The case no detective could solve. The twist no listener could predict. For five days in January 1989, the parents of a seven-year-old Tokyo schoolgirl sat and listened to the demands of their daughter's kidnapper. They would never learn his identity. They would never see their daughter again. For the 14 years that followed, the Japanese public listened to the police's apologies. They would never forget the botched investigation that became known as Six Four. They would never forgive the authorities their failure. For one week in late 2002, the press officer attached to the police department in question confronted an anomaly in the case. He could never imagine what he would uncover. He would never have looked if he'd known what he would find.

Rien ne devrait les rapprocher et, pourtant, les deux jeunes hommes nouent des liens d’amitiés très forts qui évoluent en passion amoureuse.
