Anne-Marie O Connor has created an hilarious roller coaster of a comedy out of the theory that everyone in Dublin has met Bono (stood next to him in the queue at Bewleys, heard him sing at the Dandelion Market in 1979, been offered a hand with the shopping by him). This hilarious novel is for all fans of the Man Himself.
On the mother of all Mondays, Aoife finds herself broke and homeless when both her boss and her landlord tell her it s time she moved on.
After the obligatory night in Dublin s watering holes drowning her sorrows with best friend Rory, he makes her a proposition she cant resist. If she can engineer her very own encounter with Bono, followed by a suitably impressive Bono Story, he will give her 5,000 Euro. Aoife accepts the challenge with relish but after dressing up as a nun, staking out Dublin Airport and getting drugged by rival fans, she s still no nearer her goal. Time is running out, and Aoifes life is getting complicated, so just how far will she be prepared to go to get her man?
