Bob Dylan by David Yaffe
Bob Dylan is an iconic figure in American music and cultural history. This book considers Dylan from four perspectives: his complicated relationship to blackness, the underrated influence of his singing style, his fascinating image in films, and his controversial songwriting methods that have led to charges of plagiarism.
"Only Yaffe gets anywhere close to following Dylan's drift" (Christopher Bray, Literary Review)"
