{"product_id":"folk-music-a-bob-dylan-biography-in-seven-songs","title":"Folk Music: A Bob Dylan Biography in Seven Songs","description":"\u003cp\u003eAcross decades, Bob Dylan has been the first singer of American song. As a writer and performer, he has rewritten the national songbook in a way that comes from his own vision and yet can feel as if it belongs to anyone who might listen. In \u003cem\u003eFolk Music\u003c\/em\u003e, Greil Marcus tells Dylan’s story through seven of his most transformative songs. Marcus’s point of departure is Dylan’s ability to “see myself in others.” Like Dylan’s songs, this book is a work of implicit patriotism and creative skepticism. It illuminates Dylan’s continuing presence and relevance through his empathy—his imaginative identification with other people. This is not only a deeply felt telling of the life and times of Bob Dylan but a rich history of American folk songs and the new life they were given as Dylan sat down to write his own.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003ePublished: USA, 2023\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003ePages: 288\u003cbr\u003eLanguage: English\u003cbr\u003eISBN 13: 9780300274103\u003cbr\u003eISBN 10: 0300274106\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Greil Marcus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50014668357898,"sku":"","price":21.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0282\/6066\/3399\/files\/9780300274103.jpg?v=1727507539","url":"https:\/\/www.shakespeareandsons.com\/products\/folk-music-a-bob-dylan-biography-in-seven-songs","provider":"Shakespeare \u0026 Sons Buchhandel GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
