U2: The Rolling Stone Files

Meer over het boek

The story of U2 is a dramatic one, and nowhere is that more apparent than in the pages of Rolling Stone, which has covered the band since its inception. Now readers can rediscover the band's history, from their roots as an earnest group with a peace mission covered in early articles and album reviews, to their abrupt translation to ‘Macphisto’ – the degenerate, demonic alter ego that Bono assumed for U2's Zooropa tour. Part of the uniqueness of this volume is the diversity of opinion found throughout the interviews and articles, allowing the reader a much broader perspective than a traditional biography could provide. With the collaboration of U2 expert Elysa Gardner and the magazine's top editors and writers, U2:The Rolling Stone Files provides everything U2 fans want to know and everything Rolling Stone has to offer.
