This study of Dylan's mission-driven music reveals a functional
approach to art that not only sustained his 60-year career but
forever changed an art form. The second edition of Writing Dylan:
The Songs of a Lonesome Traveler examines Nobel Laureate Bob
Dylan's historic career, yielding unique insights into a
distinctively American artist's creative world. The book opens with
a short biography and description of Dylan's artistic method before
diving into the seven missions of his life's work. Chapters are
supported by song lyrics, of which the author's license agreement
with Bob Dylan Music enables a definitive presentation. Since the
release of the first edition in 2005, the laureate has produced
three albums of original material as well as three widely praised
albums of American standards. Columbia Records has issued multiple
boxed sets chronicling specific periods of Dylan's career, and
several films have been made about him. Dylan himself has also
given numerous speeches and interviews, often while accepting
prestigious awards. This second edition not only features these new
materials but draws on them to recast the first edition, presenting
Dylan's music as an indelible art form.
