After the flood : inside Bob Dylan's memory palace

Robert Polito (Author)
A study of the later career of singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, focusing on his creative output from 1991 through 2023. Drawing on materials from the Bob Dylan Archive in Tulsa, Oklahoma, as well as published and unpublished lyrics, liner notes, recordings, films, and prose works, the book examines Dylan's artistic development during this period. Organized thematically and chronologically, it analyzes his albums, performances, and writings within broader historical and cultural contexts, including references to American history, world literature, and popular music traditions. The volume positions Dylan's later work as a significant phase in his career and explores its literary, musical, and historical dimensions
