No foreword by Bono, but he does offer a different take on what sort of man Bono is. Apparently they sort of became friends.
I haven't read
The Satantic Verses verses yet. I've been more interested in Rushdie's non-fiction to begin with, but of course I want to read the book that got him in trouble. The essay collection I'm reading also touches upon the aftermath of that book.
And I don't think the book would be over your head. Rushdie is a very readable author.
