Summary

Forging a formidable career that has spanned almost seven decades, Bob Dylan is one of the greatest songwriters and best-selling musicians of all time.

Explore Dylan’s enduring appeal from the poetic depth of his early albums to his 2016 Nobel Prize in Literature for creating new poetic expressions and beyond. Alongside his creative genius, delve into Dylan’s notoriously private life and his journey through fame, marriage, fatherhood and religion. Discover how Dylan has remained grounded throughout his reluctant role as the revolutionary voice of the hippie movement as well as his incredible ability to constantly reinvent himself and remain relevant over half a century later.
