NPR's Book of the Day - Bono writes about the faith and ecstasy of U2’s music in ‘Surrender’

Bono probably needs no introduction at this point. In this episode, the U2 frontman, philanthropist and now author sits down with NPR's Rachel Martin to talk about his new memoir, Surrender. He explains how his connection to a higher spiritual power works with rock-and-roll across U2's discography, and why he's reached a point in his life where he just wants to "shut up and listen."

NPR's Book of the Day - ‘If I Survive You’ navigates family and identity in the Jamaican diaspora

Jonathan Escoffery's debut collection of short stories follows the American-born son of Jamaican immigrants finding his place in the world and within his own family. Inspired by some of his own life experiences, If I Survive You questions what it means to belong, how culture is shared across generations, and why people migrate in the first place. Escoffery tells Here & Now's Deepa Fernandes that he wanted to disrupt the American savior complex, and instead acknowledge U.S. imperialism's role in pushing people out of their homes.

Everything Everywhere Daily - British Currency Decimalization

On February 15, 1971, the United Kingdom had a landmark day in its history. 

On that day, the country’s currency was changed after centuries of a currency system with very little change. It was a day that was years in the making.

It wasn’t the currency that changed, however. Rather it was how the currency was divided. It was the change that changed. 

Learn more about Decimal Day and British Currency Decimalization on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
