About two years ago, a very large edition of Bob Dylan’s Lyrics Since 1962 was released. The original book is 12″ square, and contains large pages with notes, and full-size reproductions of album covers. It was also very expensive; the list price was $200, and it’s now selling for $299. It’s a great book, but it takes up a lot of space.
A new smaller edition has been released, at a much nicer price: list price is $60, but on Amazon, it’s currently about $38. (Amazon.com, Amazon UK) This book is a lot smaller, doesn’t have the album covers, and doesn’t contain the notes and variants. But for most people, this is a great way to discover the poems of this Nobel prize winning poet and musician.
This is a perfect Christmas gift for your favorite Dylan fan or poetry lover.
Thanks for letting us know about this new book. I’ve ordered it. Your reviews of music and books are very useful to me, and I would never be able to find or keep up with all the things that you discover, and bring to my attention.
Thanks. I’m just about to post something about a _very_ odd book…
