U2 Irish in Every Other Way: From Oscar Wilde to the Zoo Tv, from W.B. Yeats to Bloody Sunday (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9791221054644)

Many books have been written about U2 starting from biographies to illustrated books about their tours. This volume stands apart from all the others by bringing together the Irish roots - artistic and cultural - that intertwine within the words and music of Bono, Edge, and the others.
The first time I met Tatiana here in Ireland, she was beginning the extensive research for this book. With her great enthusiasm and intelligence, she managed to involve me alongside figures like Brendan Kennelly, Bono, and The Edge, who immediately understood the importance of her work and immediately gave Tatiana access to the primary research sources, collaborating directly with her.
The result is a fascinating book, mostly based on interviews with the protagonists, offering an original view of the influences that have contributed to shaping the words and music of U2.
