BOB DYLAN : JEWISH ROOTS, AMERICAN SOIL
Εκδότης Bloomsbury , ISBN 9781399416290
From the day that Bobby Zimmerman first turned on the radio in his parents' home in
Hibbing, he'd had a pretty good idea that big things were happening, that old values
were changing, that something new was on the way.
Bob Dylan arrived in New York one winter morning in 1961. His music and spirit would
go on to capture the hearts and minds of a generation, but what no one knew then was
that, like so many before him, Dylan was concealing his Jewish origins.
For Harry Freedman, Dylan's roots are the key to grasping how this complete unknown
burst onto the scene and reinvented not only himself, but popular music. The instinct for
escape and reinvention has defined Dylan's long career.
In this insightful biography Freedman traces the heady atmosphere of the 1960s and
the folk-rock revolution spearheaded by Dylan. Right up until the moment in 1966 when
Dylan stepped out onto the stage and went electric - exploring how his musical
decisions, genius for reinvention and his Jewishness go inescapably hand in hand.
