Description: Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition book which is OUT OF PRINT and the first and only novel written by musician BOB DYLAN--the book is a First Edition and Second Printing mass market paperback published in June 1972 by Bantam Books. This book is in SUPERB condition and the book has a very light crease on the center and a slight forward list of the spine edge, a slight crease on the left spine edge of the front surface, a slight crease on the upper left and right corners of the front surface, a small gift inscription on the upper edge of the inner surface of the front cover and just very light shelfwear and slight evidence of gentle browsing but no other significant imperfections! The book is titled Tarantula: A Novel and it was written by BOB DYLAN; it was published by Bantam Books in June 1972 and is a 1st Edition and 2nd Printing copy.Written in 1966, Tarantula is a collection of poems and prose that evokes the turbulence of the times in which it was written, and gives a unique insight into Dylan's creative evolution. It captures Bob Dylan's preoccupations at a crucial juncture in his artistic development, showcasing the imagination of a folk poet laureate who was able to combine the humanity and compassion of his country roots with the playful surrealism of modern art. Angry, funny, and strange--Dylan himself said that his goal was to "throw a banana cream pie in the face of all who read this tome"--the poems and prose in this collection reflect the concerns found in Dylan's most seminal music: a sense of protest, a verbal playfulness and spontaneity, and a belief in the artistic legitimacy of chronicling everyday life and eccentricity on the street. A fantastic find, and a beautiful copy of this book!Thanks for looking, and good luck if you're bidding!
