The celebrated first memoir from arguably the most influential singer-songwriter in the country, Bob Dylan.
I'd come from a long ways off and had started a long ways down. But now destiny was about to manifest itself. I felt like it was looking right at me and nobody else.
So writes Bob Dylan in Chronicles: Volume One, his remarkable book exploring critical junctures in his life and career. Through Dylan's eyes and open mind, we see Greenwich Village, circa 1961, when he first arrives in Manhattan. Dylan's New York is a magical city of possibilitiessmoky, nightlong parties; literary awakenings; transient loves and unbreakable friendships. Elegiac observations are punctuated by jabs of memories, penetrating and tough. With the book's side trips to New Orleans, Woodstock, Minnesota, and points west, Chronicles: Volume One is an intimate and intensely personal recollection of extraordinary times.
By turns revealing, poetical, passionate, and witty, Chronicles: Volume One is a mesmerizing window on Bob Dylan's thoughts and influences. Dylan's voice is distinctively American: generous of spirit, engaged, fanciful, and rhythmic. Utilizing his unparalleled gifts of storytelling and the exquisite expressiveness that are the hallmarks of his music, Bob Dylan turns Chronicles: Volume One into a poignant reflection on life, and the people and places that helped shape the man and the art.

Nearly as good as his songwriting
I adore Bob Dylan's style of writing. I'd read this man's shopping list and love it. His approach to writing this book seems to have been throwing all of his memories in a pile, not sorting through them but simply writing them down as they come to him. This felt more like reading small excerpts of his life as he experienced it rather than a generic memoir. I thoroughly enjoyed reading about all the things that have inspired Bob Dylan's music and way of living – Bob Dylan, who to this day inspires millions of people and will continue to do so for a long time.
