When a Fourteen-Year-Old Boy Lost His Mother and Found His Voice
What happens when grief becomes so unbearable that you can't speak its name? In September 1974, fourteen-year-old Paul Hewson-not yet known as Bono-watched his mother Iris collapse at her father's funeral. Three days later, he heard "the sound of a switch": the life support machine being turned off. After that, in their Dublin home on Cedarwood Road, three Irish males-Bono, his brother Norman, and their father Bob-lived in what he calls "rage and melancholy," dealing with loss by never mentioning it again. The silence was deafening. When you can't speak about pain, where does it go? For Bono, it poured into music-his songs became prayers, his stage became home, and his voice became the instrument for emotions too raw to articulate in ordinary conversation. This void would shape everything: his desperate search for surrogate families, his lifelong restlessness, and his transformation into one of the most influential musicians and activists of our time.
