Book Synopsis

Beyond revolutionizing rock and roll, Bob Dylan became a preacher on stage in the late 1970s, won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 2016, opened a series of exhibits of his paintings, wrote three books, worked as a film director, and performed as an actor.Despite his decades in the public eye and vast range of artistic achievements, he remains an enigmatic figure.

This book contains original interviews with 13 leading Dylanologists about why Dylan has remained such a compelling and important artist to the present day.Topics discussed are diverse, including his music, histime in cinema and his comparisons to Stanley Kubrick, his spiritual wisdom, and his award-winning poetry.
