Ariel Dorfman, the novelist who has taught at Duke for 25 years now, got a shout-out Saturday during the big U2 show in Raleigh.
Near the end of the show, Bono, the mega-band's singer, dedicated the evening to Dorfman, according to this report.
In 1998, Bono and playwright Harold Pinter contributed to Deadline, a fictional film set to two of Dorfman's poems.
