Bob Dylan is all about the compounding of words. After I read this book, I headed to university. People have dry-erase boards on their doors for messages in rooming houses for students, probably in residences, too. Every night while everyone was out at the bars, I would write Tarantula-esque letters to people on their boards. It got to be a thing, and people really looked forward to their weird letters. Some others got so into it, they too started the trend. When I read this book, I couldn't help but laugh. You NEVER expect what Dylan will come out with next. If you like words, if you like imagery, you might appreciate the stylings of Mr. Bob Dylan. And if you dig Dylan, well, check it out. It is no wonder he wrote the songs he did, having the imagination and word skills to create a thing like TARANTULA.
