The ultimate biography of Bob Dylan
Born, raised and educated in Edinburgh, Ian Bell is a past holder of the George Orwell Prize for Political Journalism and the award-winning author of Dreams of Exile, a biography of Robert Louis Stevenson. Formerly the Scottish editor of The Observer, he is a columnist with The Herald and the Sunday Herald.
"As knotty, beguiling, contrary, infuriating and ambitious as its subject ... the most vital Dylan biography yet" The Guardian "Bell's literary bent is his strength. He brings fresh insight into Dylan's verse" Scotland on Sunday "Bell's analysis is as sharp and intelligent as his award-winning political journalism. Definitely a "must-have" Dylan book" The Herald "This is the best Dylan biography yet - an imagined reliving of an already imaginary life, and a book to sit alongside Ellmann on Wilde, Richardson on Picasso, Ackroyd on Dickens" Financial Times "Treads the fine line between straight reportage and engaging storytelling in expert fashion" Hot Press
