Synopsis

The essential writing on the essential songwriter. Studio A chronicles the creator of some of the most indelible popular music of our time, a restless and protean figure whose career has been the subject of repeated transformations, declines, and comebacks. From early singles such as "Blowin' in the Wind" to recent albums like Love and Theft, Bob Dylan has proven himself to be the greatest lyricist of modern songwriters and the "poet laureate" of the 1960s. Authors in Studio A examine how Dylan's albums and live concerts have secured his place in the traditions of folk, rock, and blues. Contributors include Dylan himself, Sam Shepard, Bruce Springsteen, Clive James, Allen Ginsberg, Johnny Cash, and Greil Marcus, and the text features previously unpublished work by Joyce Carol Oates, Gary Giddins, Rick Moody, Tom Piazza, and Barry Hannah. Studio A: The Bob Dylan Reader gathers over forty articles, poems, essays, speeches, literary criticisms, and interviews in an indispensable look at Bob Dylan's unique literary legacy. 8 pages of photographs.
