By Chris O'Connor

Perfect for both the long-time Dylan fan and for bemused family and friends wanting to understand the devotion, this book explains what singer-songwriter Bob Dylan has achieved over his 60-year career and why he has acquired such a cult following. Why is he so revered? Why does everyone know his name? Why do we all know someone with ' Bob Dylan Concert' on their bucket list? By breaking his career up into 14 different chapters, this book explains how he has both shaped and reflected modern popular culture across a period of enormous social and political change. There are many books about Bob Dylan; stories of his life, fanatic deconstructions of his lyrics, and tomes exceeding 900 pages. This book is none of those, but rather a concise story of Bob Dylan's artistic development throughout his whole career, perfect for fans and newcomers alike.
