Good read. Interesting ideas are scattered throughout their conversations. Bono is easy to like. ( )

An interesting read about a larger-than-life, force-of-nature personality. Bono comes across as very human, somewhat bemused at what he does, not just the front man of a great rock band, with all the fame and money and adulation that brings, but as someone who hobnobs with world leaders talking about third world debt, poverty, AIDs, etc. And, as someone aware of his own failings, but who figures he might as well throw himself into the fray, in spite of that, to see if something better emerges.

He is extraordinary ( )

The dialog format of this book allowed me to sit and hear these two amazing men discuss everything. The conversation was larger than U2, larger the Bono's life story, and moved to encompass the whole earth and the divine, within the lenses of these two men's understanding.

It's humbling to be invited to this conversation, even through such a removed medium. ( )

An intimate conversation with Bono that I was very pleased to be a part of. I had a lot of respect for Bono before reading the book, and I respect him a lot more after. For any U2 fan or anyone who has been involved with campaigns Bono has fronted, i.e. ONE, I recommend picking this up. ( )

Great read and a must for anyone who like U2's lyrics. Michka does a good job of pushing Bono to speak beyond his usual "talking points." Highly recommended. ( )

A fascinating read if you like Bono & U2 ( )

I have read a couple of books about u2 and have been a fan for a few years. This one was pretty good. I liked the way the author did the chapters and the conversational style. I didnt know very much about the whole debt relief for africa and who involved Bono was in that. It was a good read. ( )
