MacGibbon & Kee, London, 1971. First Edition. Hardcover (Original Cloth). Very Good Condition/Very Good. 1st Edition, 3rd impression. 137 pages, Original covers in unclipped dust jacket. The first and only novel published by Bob Dylan. Tarantula is an experimental stream-of-consciousness book of prose poetry. Composed in a style of Beat writers such as Kerouac, Burroughs and Ginsberg, and similar to liner notes which Dylan wrote for his albums of around the same time (such as Bringing It All Back Home and Highway 61 Revisited). Although written in 1966, Dylan's motorcycle accident postponed publication, and it was not properly published, other than in bootleg form, until 1971 by MacGibbon & Kee. Michael Gray writes inside back flap: "Tarantula is crowded out with flashes and fragments of piercing, instantaneous imagery: people and places and life styles snatched up and spotlit in a moment, as of America's chaos. Dylan pins down the pointlessness and the aimlessness and the… Read More
