Description

2021 marks Dylan's 80th birthday and his 60th year in the music world.

It invites us to look back on his career and the multitudes that it contains.

Is he a song and dance man? A political hero? A protest singer? A self-portrait artist who has yet to paint his masterpiece?

Is he Shakespeare in the alley? The greatest living exponent of American music? An ironsmith? Internet radio DJ? Poet (who knows it)? Is he a spiritual and religious parking meter? Judas? The voice of a generation or a false prophet, jokerman, and thief?

Dylan is all these and none.The essays in this book explore the Nobel laureate's masks, collectively reflecting upon their meaning through time, change, movement, and age.

They are written by wonderful and diverse set of contributors, all here for his 80th birthday bash: celebrated Dylanologists like Michael Gray and Laura Tenschert; recording artists such as Robyn Hitchcock, Barb Jungr, Amy Rigby, and Emma Swift; and 'the professors' who all like his looks: David Boucher, Anne Margaret Daniel, Ray Monk, Galen Strawson, and more.
