Resumen del Editor
***WINNER OF THE 2024 AUDIE AWARD FOR AUDIOBOOK OF THE YEAR***
Bono—artist, activist, and the lead singer of Irish rock band U2—has written a memoir: honest and irreverent, intimate and profound, Surrender is the story of the remarkable life he’s lived, the challenges he’s faced, and the friends and family who have shaped and sustained him.
Narrated by the author, Surrender is an intimate, immersive listening experience, telling stories from Bono’s early days in Dublin, to joining a band and playing sold out stadiums around the world with U2, plus his more than 20 years of activism.
Throughout a remarkable life, music has always been a constant for Bono and in the audiobook, his distinctive voice is interwoven with a very personal soundtrack adding atmosphere and texture to each and every scene. From moments of classic U2 hits to snippets by The Clash, Patti Smith, Verdi, Johnny Cash and Mozart, Surrender also exclusively features clips of newly recorded reimagined versions of U2 songs including ‘Sunday Bloody Sunday’, ‘With Or Without You’, ‘One’, ‘Beautiful Day’ and more, glimpsed for the first time on Surrender: 40 Songs, One Story.

Brandi Carlile was born into a musically gifted, impoverished family on the outskirts of Seattle and grew up in a constant state of change, moving from house to house, trailer to trailer, 14 times in as many years. Though imperfect in every way, her dysfunctional childhood was as beautiful as it was strange, and as nurturing as it was difficult. At the age of five, Brandi contracted bacterial meningitis, which almost took her life, leaving an indelible mark on her formative years and altering her journey into young adulthood.

The world’s greatest bodybuilder. The world’s highest-paid movie star. The leader of the world’s sixth-largest economy. That these are the same person sounds like the setup to a joke, but this is no joke. This is Arnold Schwarzenegger. And this did not happen by accident. Arnold’s stratospheric success happened as part of a process. As the result of clear vision, big thinking, hard work, direct communication, resilient problem-solving, open-minded curiosity, and a commitment to giving back. All of it guided by the one lesson Arnold’s father hammered into him above all: be useful.

Dylan, who began working on the book in 2010, offers his insight into the nature of popular music. He writes over sixty essays focusing on songs by other artists, spanning from Stephen Foster to Elvis Costello, and in between ranging from Hank Williams to Nina Simone. He analyzes what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song, and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal. These essays are written in Dylan’s unique prose. And while ostensibly about music, they are really meditations on the human condition.

Reseñas de la Crítica
A VOGUE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
“Honest and direct . . . [Surrender] is defined largely by humility. This is an introspective story written by a man whose spirit is never far removed from the sadness and grief of his childhood; the hunger, literal and figurative, of a teen wannabe rocker; and the gratitude of one who worked his butt off and made it to the top . . . This is the rare rock star memoir written by a rock star who, you get the impression, could have been a writer . . . Bono has a gift for making even the unattainable seem relatable . . . He’s humble, even self-effacing. He might be fun to have a beer with. He is very much of this Earth, even if on occasion he might seem to float above the water.”—The L.A. Times
“Compelling . . . Surrender is more introspective than salacious or score-settling, and proof that the tunesmith who wrote it also speaks fluent prose.”—The Washington Post
“Surrender soars whenever the spotlight comes on. Bono is never more powerful, on the page or the stage, than when he strives for the transcendence that only music can offer . . . [Bono] is open and honest, with language that can be witty and distinctive, addressing his competitive relationship with his father or growing up against the backdrop of Ireland’s political violence.”—The New York Times

Songs like "Take Me Home, Country Roads", "Rocky Mountain High", and "Annie's Song" have entered the canon of universal anthems, but at his start John Denver was a young man with little more than a fine voice, a guitar, and a dream. Growing up in a conservative military family, he was not expected to drop out of college and head to Los Angeles, where the music scene was flourishing. Nor was he expected to succeed.

For Cody Alan, one of country music’s most famous on-air radio and TV personalities, listening to other people has always been a crucial part of his role. It was by fostering his ability to hear others that he discovered the person he most needed to listen to was himself. Listening ultimately led him on a journey of self-discovery where he found the courage to come out as gay, the openness to question spiritually, and the strength to explore a new definition of parenting and family.

Dylan, who began working on the book in 2010, offers his insight into the nature of popular music. He writes over sixty essays focusing on songs by other artists, spanning from Stephen Foster to Elvis Costello, and in between ranging from Hank Williams to Nina Simone. He analyzes what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song, and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal. These essays are written in Dylan’s unique prose. And while ostensibly about music, they are really meditations on the human condition.

The Pistols shot to fame in the mid-1970s with songs such as "Anarchy in the U.K." and "God Save the Queen".

Hands down the best audiobook I’ve ever listened to. It’s more like a radio play than a book. Bono’s narration is superb, the music and sound effects add to the atmosphere, and the story is compelling. Highly, highly recommended!

No Words
This performance was beautiful and engaging. But much more was the heart and life of a man laid bare so we might glimpse it for a moment. As a person of faith, Bono’s real, living faith caused me to question how am I living out mine. Seeing him strive to seek God, but recognizing early in his life, the difference in religion and faith was so inspiring. How he and his wife understood how they could act out their faith through service to those in need, beginning in their early 20’s was so different. I am amazed at how much he understood about God’s love, mercy, and most importantly grace at a young age leaves me without words. All of that and incredible music with band mates he clearly loves for over 40 years. So much accomplished and he isn’t finished. It was an honor to listen to this performance. I feel inspired to make a difference in my own sliver of the world. How can I help?!?!?!

I scoffed a little at the price, but after listening I can honestly say it’s the best audiobook I’ve ever heard. The music, the narration, the solo’s, the background sounds all made the price totally worth it. Listening about his life and his perspective and worldview have definitely solidified him and what he stands for into the crevices of my heart. The way he speaks about life, even in all the heartache, is somehow comforting. You will laugh and cry throughout this audiobook. I loved it and recommend it to all.

Wow. A new standard in autobiographies
I have listened to numerous autobiographies and a fair number of ones about musicians. This one has unfairly raised the bar on any I listen to in the future. Unfairly because Bono didn’t approach this as a book that could be read out-loud as his peers did. He approached this as a performance piece. It was a great, entertaining, thought provoking performance that will stay with me.
Ignore those reviewers who say this audio-book is “preachy”. Far from if. What you will hear is a man who humbly shows you his heart, his soul and his fallacies. If a listener finds it “preachy” then maybe it has just made them uncomfortable regarding where they are and where they should be.
Those reviews who write that it’s a political statement — well if talking about how those of us born in the 1st World have been blessed and acknowledge that maybe we should use some of our blessings to help those not so blessed — ok call it “political” or maybe it’s just being a decent human being.
Give yourself a gift and listen to this recording. Treat yourself.

I was anxious that he would be... a bit much.
Even long time fans will confess that Bono can be... a lot. Happily in this setting the author finds a charming, intimate, and strikingly humble tone.
Gratitude is the timbre. His stories; often funny, sometimes abstract, consistently rewarding; build on the best in others: musicians, activists, politicians, and friends.
Amid all the ambition, mistakes, and success retold I found myself surprisingly inspired. I found myself wanting to be more of a good guy in the world, to be a better friend, a better spouse. I did not come in expecting any of this.
Five stars from me.

The top line melody of a life
My life is more rich because of this man’s work. His music has long found resonant frequency with my soul. This book does the same. Thank you, Bono.

The next best thing…
to seeing the man sing live. First listened to U2 in 1983 and have his voice in the soundtrack to most of my life. Had a cassette confiscated by a teacher at my strict Baptist school. For me, Bono has always lived in that tension between Christ and Christianity. But this book reveals his “inbetweenery” extends so far beyond his songs or the band or even his activism. It’s an identity borne out of real suffering. We should all be so lucky to gain as much, or learn as much, as Bono has. The writing in this biography is only eclipsed by his painfully honest reading. Of course, even that conceit of honesty might be part of the show ….

Exceptionally Beautiful
How amazing to hear Bono tell his own story! Fascinating, thought-provoking, and wonderfully produced. BUT, be prepared for a lot of name dropping and political preaching . I loved the book overall but had to force myself through those parts in the hope of him getting back to his life and the band.
