"Bono--the guy that wants to save the world. One of the Dubliners. Rock star poet. Lovable rogue. You have to appreciate his commitment to social causes--always pushing for change, always trying to fix things. Good for him. Most people don't even bother. Trying to change the world and maybe transcend it. Singing for a world too obsessed with noise to listen. Searching for redemption like all of us are--and he seems to be aware of the depths of that search. He knows the distance between the soul and the public square. He's got guts that guy. Bravo Bono."
--Bob Dylan

"Bono tells us who he is as a friend and a family member, an artist and a true believer. The result is both electrifying and intimate, a spectacular read."
--Ann Patchett

"Surrender is a rich and honest book, rich because of its honesty. If you want to know the man behind the shades, read this book. He's worth getting to know."
--Salman Rushdie
