Down the Highway - Howard Sounes
Úplný, fascinující příběh života a díla Boba Dylana je v působivé knize Down The Highway, kterou lze považovat za definitivní biografii této americké hudební legendy, vyprávěn jako nikdy předtím.Už od počátku šedesátých let, kdy Bob Dylan ovlivnil průběh folkového revivalu písněmi jako Blowin’ In The Wind, byl jedním z nejlepších autorů nové éry, umělcem, jehož skladby zachytily ducha doby a upoutaly představivost milionů. Od té doby uplynulo hodně vody a Dylan je stále tady – milován těmi, kdo s jeho muzikou vyrůstali, a obdivován mladšími generacemi, které v něm rozpoznaly nepřekonatelného hudebního inovátora. Ačkoli strávil bezmála půl století pod drobnohledem médií, zůstal dodnes záhadnou postavou, jejíž soukromý život – od památné nehody v roce 1966 až po otázku, kolikrát se vlastně oženil a kolik má dětí – halí mlha tajemství.Uznávaný životopisec Howard Sounes v knize Down The Highway rozptyluje veškeré pochybnosti a nabízí nový, zasvěcený pohled na téměř každý aspekt Dylanovy existence, včetně jeho hudby, historie jednotlivých nahrávání, složitého milostného života, rodiny a obchodních záležitostí. Výsledkem je dokonalý a přesný portrét této nepolapitelné a těkavé hvězdy. Během tří let se autorovi podařilo vyzpovídat více než 250 osob, které v Dylanově příběhu sehrály klíčovou roli. Bývalí spoluhráči, přítelkyně a členové písničkářovy ... Unknown localization key: "more"

And they whispered that there was no knowing whether she was sent as a blessing or a bane.'When the child emerges from the wilderness, no one in the village knows what to do with her.
