The film “Bono: Stories of Surrender” received its worldwide premiere at this year’s Cannes Film Festival. An abridged paperback version of the autobiography, also titled “Bono: Stories of Surrender” and featuring a new introduction by Bono, has been published by Penguin Random House as a companion to the film and EP.
