Chronicles Vol 1
Bob Dylan - Book - by Bob Dylan
(2004)
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.
