Whistle Stop Bob Dylan writing autobiography (37) RE: Bob Dylan writing autobiography 30 Oct 01


Actually, Guest, he wrote a book called "Tarantula," which is what I was referring to in my post above. A bit of absurdist nonsense circa 1966, not really worth bothering with in my opinion. But yes, he has written a book.

I never said that "a good songwriter must an excellent author make"; only that we shouldn't judge the book before we know anything about it. I think it would be unlike Dylan to come out with a standard ghost-written celebrity autobiography. It's not out of the question, but I think it would be out of character. I'll reserve judgment until the book comes out.
