Books about Bob Dylan are many and varied, but if you want the real deal Greil Marcus is your man. He is able to put Dylan in his literary and historical context and, more importantly, he can really write about the great man's music in all its gritty, bittersweet glory. In Folk Music, Marcus tells Dylan’s story through seven of his most transformative songs. From 1962's Blowin' in the Wind to 2020's Murder Most Foul, this is the story of a countercultural icon and a central figure of American culture. Whether you are a deep Dylanologist or a newcomer to his huge and sometimes baffling body of work, there is so much here to enjoy. #folkmusic #greilmarcus #bobdylan #abobdylanbiographyin7songs #booksellerrecommends #dauntbooks #blowininthewind #murdermostfoul
