Book Reviews of Tangled Up in the Bible: Bob Dylan and Scripture
Book Review: Dancing with Mr. Tambourine Man
Summary: 5 Stars
The parallels Gilmour draws between Dylan lyrics and Bible verses are clearly presented in chart form. Far beyond my appreciation for Gilmour's scholarly research and ludidity, I appreciate his awareness of and ability to express the delicate shadings of meaning/feeling in Dylan's work, laden as it is with ambiguity, allusion, and subtle shiftings. Gilmour does not detract from its suggestive power by offering an objective analysis, but acknowledges that imaginative participation and personal interpretation are key to a rewarding experience in listening to Dylan.
