WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE The celebrated first memoir from arguably the most influential singer-songwriter in the country, Bob Dylan. ''I''d come from a long ways off and had started a long ways down. But now destiny was about to manifest itself. I felt like it was looking right at me and nobody else.'' So writes Bob Dylan in Chronicles: Volume One, his remarkable book exploring critical junctures in his life and career. Through Dylan’s eyes and open mind, we see Greenwich Village, circa 1961, when he first arrives in Manhattan. Dylan’s New York is a magical city of possibilities - smoky, nightlong parties; literary awakenings; transient loves and unbreakable friendships. Elegiac observations are punctuated by jabs of memories, penetrating and tough. With the book’s side trips to New Orleans, Woodstock, Minnesota, and points west, Chronicles: Volume One is an intimate and intensely personal recollection of extraordinary times. By turns revealing, poetical, passionate, and witty, Chronicles: Volume One is a mesmerizing window on Bob Dylan’s thoughts and influences. Dylan’s voice is distinctively American: generous of spirit, engaged, fanciful, and rhythmic. Utilizing his unparalleled gifts of storytelling and the exquisite expressiveness that are the hallmarks of his music, Bob Dylan turns Chronicles: Volume One into a poignant reflection on life, and the people and places that helped shape the man and the art. ''Chronicles stunned everyone . . . [it''s] clear, apparently frank, unremittingly serious about his musical influences and exquisitely written. It is, in fact, a masterpiece'' Sunday Times ''Entertaining and surprisingly deprecating... The book''s structure is elegant . . . Chronicles is tautly written, vividly cinematic, and funny . . . a courageous little book'' Financial Times ''There is something on every page, in every paragraph, that demands attention . . . In rock and roll terms, this book is like discovering the lost diaries of Shakespeare. It may be the most extraordinarily intimate autobiography by a 20th-century legend'' Daily Telegraph

Presents the familiar Dylan song, accompanied by illustrations of children.

Bob Dylan has been a prolific graphic artist since the 1960s, and his graphic art is marked by the same constant drive for renewal that characterises his music. Never content to remain static in a single form of expression that he has already cultivated, he is constantly experimenting and testing new artistic techniques and expressions. This book of the exhibition at the National Gallery of Denmark encompasses some 100 works, including completely new works to be seen in public for the first time. Bob Dylan has recently delved into painting in acrylic, and the exhibition is the first to document this new direction in the artist''s work, showing larger format paintings alongside drawings. Dylan''s works are often created during his exhaustive touring, and his motifs bear corresponding imprints of the environments and people that he crosses in his life. As a graphic artist he functions as a phenomenal observer who depicts the immediately banal and everyday facets of life in such a way that they appear fresh and new for the viewer.

The portrait of a very young Bob Dylan on the cover of The Times They Are a Changin is probably one of the most recognizable and famous album covers of all time. Photographer Barry Feinstein took that photo, as well as many more of Dylan throughout his career. His images have been published throughout the world many times over, and have become synonymous with our perceptions of that place and time in rock and folk music history. Inspired by a series of photographs that Feinstein took in Hollywood during the 1950s and 60s, Bob Dylan wrote an extraordinary series of poems that have remained unpublished for decades. They are thought-provoking, witty and erudite observations of the world; through the lens of Feinstein''s photographs, they speak volumes about the anonymous faces and places of Los Angeles, and offer wry commentary on images of stars and legends in the neighbourhood at the time. Photos of Frank Sinatra, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Garland float through the book, as do poignant images of starlets, casting couches, employment agencies and palm tree''d boulevards. Feinstein was there with a camera to capture some world-famous events, such as Marilyn Monroe''s memorial service, and he photographed the forgettable moments, preserving them perfectly and timelessly. Bob Dylan''s unsettling and distinctly unique perspective informs and enlivens every page, an irresistible interpretive voice narrating the visual images from photo to photo.

Mesmerized by the power of Bob Dylan''s lyrics and intrigued by the possibilities of translating his enigmatic personality into art, 13 leading graphic artists have banded together to create this illustrated testament to the vision of an American musical genius.

''I''ve always painted. I''ve always held on to that one way or another.'' (Bob Dylan) The ability to combine sensations and to express these in different ways: this is the extraordinary talent of Bob Dylan. The genres flow seamlessly into another, moved by incredible creativity: of sounds, words and images. In Dylan''s well-received exhibition in 2007/2008 in Chemnitz, Germany. The Drawn Blank Series, watercolour and gouache works by the singer were shown for the first time anywhere in the world. This publication documents the series of talks that accompanied the exhibition: for each decade of Dylan''s creative practice, a particularly significant song was selected by a famous expert and interpreted in depth. This is a unique storybook - for old and new fans - providing a fascinating insight into the work and creative practice of Bob Dylan. English and German text.

WINNER OF THE NOBEL PRIZE IN LITERATURE Music legend Bob Dylan''s only work of fiction—a combination of stream of consciousness prose, lyrics, and poetry that gives fans insight into one of the most influential singer-songwriters of our time. Written in 1966, Tarantula is a collection of poems and prose that evokes the turbulence of the times in which it was written, and offers unique insight into Dylan''s creative evolution, capturing the stream-of-consciousness preoccupations of the legendary folk poet and his eclectic, erudite cool at a crucial juncture in his artistic development. It has since been welcomed into the Dylan canon, as Dylan himself has cemented his place in the cultural imagination, inspiring Todd Haynes’s acclaimed 2007 musical drama I’m Not There, selling more than 100 million records, and winning numerous prizes, including the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2017. In his acceptance speech for the Nobel, Dylan acknowledged the early influence on his work of Buddy Holly and Lead Belly as well as of wide-ranging classics like Don Quixote, All Quiet on the Western Front, and Moby Dick. Tarantula is a rare chance to see Dylan at a moment in which he was still deeply connected to his country roots and a folk vernacular while opening himself up to the influence of French 19th-century Surrealist writers like Arthur Rimbaud and the Comte de Lautreamont. A decade before the confessional singer-songwriter who would create the 1975 epic, Blood on the Tracks—which was just optioned by filmmaker Luca Guadagnino—here is Dylan at his most verbally playful and radically inventive. Angry, funny, and strange, the poems and prose in this collection reflect the concerns found in Dylan''s most seminal music—a spirit of protest, a poetic spontaneity, and a chronicling of the eccentric and the everyday—which continue to make him a beloved artist and cultural icon.

Winner of the NOBEL PRIZE in Literature 2016 ''I change during the course of a day. I wake and I''m one person, and when I go to sleep I know for certain I''m somebody else.'' Bob Dylan Gathered together for the first time: a rare and diverse collection of intimate interviews, straight from the mouth of America''s most celebrated street poet. DYLAN ON DYLAN is a must-read for his millions of fans. Twenty-nine of the most significant and revealing conversations with the singer, stretching over forty years from the earliest days of his career in 1962 through to 2004, are brought together here to cover the gaps left by the Chronicles: Volume 1. Among the highlights are the seminal Rolling Stone interviews by Jann Wenner, Jonathan Cott, Kurt Loder and Mikal Gilmore, as well as the legendary 1966 Playboy interview. Dylan expert Jonathan Cott writes an introduction to this must-have collection of the artist in his own words. ''Edited by Jonathan Cott, one of the original editors of Rolling Stone and arguably the most simpatico writer ever to converse with Mr Dylan, the interview format remains eminently readable ... Mr. Cott identifies the major sea changes in Mr Dylan''s life via conversational format, without undue commentary ... Nobody can explain Mr Dylan as well as he, when he cares to do it, can explain himself'' The New York Times

Jonathan Cott, journaliste à Rolling Stone et biographe de Bob Dylan, a réuni dans ce livre trente et une des plus importantes interviews accordées au long de sa carrière par le créateur de « Like A Rolling Stone ». Ces témoignages directs permettent d''approcher et de mieux connaître cet artiste capital du XXe siècle qui n''a cessé de se métamorphoser au fil des décennies, de ses débuts folk en 1962 à New York jusqu''à nos jours où il est revenu au sommet. Outre six entretiens parus dans Rolling Stone, on trouvera ici la mythique interview avec Nat Hentoff de Playboy en 1966, un échange digne d''une pièce de théâtre avec Sam Shepard en 1987 et de nombreux autres textes où revivent les paroles, la musique et la vie de Dylan. Dylan par Dylan offre les indispensables clés pour entrer dans l''oeuvre légendaire d''une personnalité aussi complexe que géniale. Quelques extraits : « Je fuguais tout le temps parce que je n''étais pas libre. J''étais constamment sur mes gardes. En quelque sorte, à ce moment-là, je savais déjà que les parents font ce qu''ils font parce qu''ils sont coincés. S''ils se font du souci pour leurs enfants, c''est par rapport à eux. C''est-à-dire qu''il veulent que leurs enfants leur fassent plaisir, et ne les mettent pas dans l''embarras, pour qu''ils puissent être fiers d''eux. Ils veulent qu''on devienne ce qu''ils ont décidé à votre place. C''est pour ça que j''ai commencé à fuguer à dix ans ». A Nat Hentoff, The New Yorker, 1964. « Il n''est pas nécessaire d''écrire pour être un poète. On peut travailler dans une station-service et être un poète. Je ne me considère pas comme tel, parce que je n''aime pas le mot. Je suis un trapéziste ». A Nora Ephron et Susan Edmiston, Positively Tie Dream, 1965. « Le but le plus élevé de l''art est d''inspirer. Que peut-on faire d''autre ? Que peut-on donner aux autres en dehors de cela ? » A Jonathan Cott, Rolling Stone, 1978.

Matching folio to the Martin Scorsese picture No Direction Home: Bob Dylan. With melody, chord symbols, and full lyrics.

Revelador, poético, apasionado e ingenioso, este primer volumen de las memorias, es una ventana fascinante a las ideas del bardo y las influencias que lo marcaron. Los prolegómenos de la crónica vital y profesional de Bob Dylan nos remontan al Greenwich Village de 1961, testigo principal de su llegada a Nueva York. De ahí parte la crónica de sus primeros tientos profesionales, cuando, recién llegado a Nueva York, merodea por el Village en pos de su destino y rememora los encuentros con todos los fascinantes personajes que marcaron los inicios de su carrera como intérprete, cantautor y compositor. Relato rico en episodios inéditos narrados con la simplicidad del discípulo que jamás ha abandonado la senda de los maestros, ni siquiera después de haber sido aclamado como el más grande. La Nueva York de los sesenta es una ciudad mágica llena de posibilidades: fiestas cargadas de humo que duran hasta el amanecer; despertares literarios; amores efímeros y amistades a prueba de fuego. Dylan alterna observaciones elegíacas con retazos de recuerdos aderezados con comentarios agudos e incisivos. Los relatos de sus incursiones a otros lugares como Nueva Orleans, Woodstock, Minesota y el Oeste convierten a Crónicas en un vívido recordatorio personal de una época irrepetible. Bob Dylan nació con el nombre de Robert Allen Zimmerman el 24 de mayo de 1941 en Duluth, Minnesota (Estados Unidos).

Ara revelador, ara poètic, apassionat, enginyós, Cròniques: Volum primer constitueix una fascinant finestra oberta als pensaments i les influències de Dylan, que parla amb una veu inconfusiblement americana: d''esperit generós, compromesa, fantasiosa i rítmica. Servint-se dels seus incomparables dots narratius i de l''exquisida expressivitat que caracteritzen la seva música, Bob Dylan fa d''aquest llibre una reflexió punyent sobre la vida, les persones i els llocs que van contribuir a forjar l''home i el seu art.
