"I'd come from a long ways off and had started a long ways down.But now destiny was about to manifest itself.I felt like it was looking right at me and nobody else."
So writes Bob Dylan in 'Chronicles:Volume
One',his remarkable book exploring critical junctures in his life and career.
Through Dylan's eyes and open mind,we see Greenwich Village,circa 1961,when he first arrives in Manhattan.Dylan's New York is a magical city of possibilities - smoky,
nightlong parties; literary awakenings; transient loves and unbreakable friendships.Elegiac observations are punctuated by jabs of memories,penetrating and tough.With the book's side trips to New Orleans,Woodstock,Minnesota and points west,'Chronicles: Volume One' is an intimate and intensely personal recollection of extraordinary times.
By turns revealing,poetical,passionate and witty,'Chronicles: Volume One' is a mesmerizing window on Bob Dylan's thoughts and influences.Dylan's voice is distinctly American: generous of spirit,engaged, fanciful and rhythmic.Utilizing his unparalleled gifts of storytelling and the exquisite expressiveness that are the hallmarks of his music,Bob Dylan turns 'Chronicles: Volume One' into a poignant reflection on life,and the people and places that helped shape the man and the art.
