U2 By U2

If you haven't already picked up the new U2 By U2, you're missing out. Of course, if you aren't a U2 fan, you have other issues. Seriously, this is only the third publication in twenty years that carries any kind of U2 authority about the philosophy, life and music of U2. The Unforgettable Fire (also an outstanding album) is now outdated and Bono in Conversation with Mitchka Assayas is, as the title says, mainly about Bono.

U2 By U2 is choc full of photography, complemented by rich biography. A collectable, weighing in at close to 5 lbs, the book belongs on any U2 fan's shelf. Let me know your thoughts on the book, should you pick it up.
