Negative Positive
Title: A real dissapointment
Review: I read this book as soon as it came out, and I have to agree with the many people who have said that it's not very good. The problem is that Dylan's early years have already been covered many times, and this book doesn't offer anything of interest that hasn't been reported. That would be okay, but there's nothing interesting here concerning Dylan's music, which is the reason anyone would read a biography in the first place. It seems like the author rushed this out to capitalize on Dylan's upcoming sixtieth birthday. That, and a few boring details of Dylan's private life, will not make this a bestseller, or even a definitive biography. Just one more book that fails to capture the enigma that is Bob Dylan. Listen to Dylan's music if you want to know anything about him, it's all there.
Is the review positive or negative?
