"All I can do is be me, whoever that is."
The many sides of Bob Dylan are revealed in this collection of the
artist's words and lyrics.
Having celebrated his 80th birthday in May 2021, with plaudits given
around the globe, this influential if enigmatic troubadour-poet has been
a'changing with the times since the 1960s when he was the 'voice of a
generation'. Nobel and Pulitzer prize-winner, musician, artist, author
and actor, the living legend's words in lyrics and in real life have
inspired, enthralled, provoked and puzzled generations of fans, literary
buffs, musicians and songwriters - and have been mulled over by
academics and artists alike. This collection of quotes - humorous,
grave, desperate, passionate, fearless, surreal - includes a rich
tapestry of confessions, admonitions, laments, prophecies and
existential meanderings. Interspersed with fascinating facts, The
Little Book of Bob Dylan sheds light on the deep inner workings of this
taciturn man and his music.
