‘No Direction Home: Bob Dylan’
And the winner of the 2016 Nobel Prize For Literature is… Bob Dylan! Specifically, for reasons relating to ‘having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition.’ Difficult to argue with that, even more difficult after viewing Martin Scorsese’s masterful 2005 documentary No Direction Home: Bob Dylan, which examines the period in Dylan’s career from his 1961 arrival in New York City through his 1966 ‘retirement’ from live performance.
