Tarantula
Ratings1
Average rating3.5
A bizarre, meandering collection of Dylanisms and vignettes. Sparse moments of cohesion and genius bind together an otherwise surreal and meaningless patchwork. Sometimes Tarantula is funny or insightful, sometimes it paints vivid portraits, but most of the book is stream-of-consciousness gobbledygook from a heavily drugged Dylan. Worth a read for fans of Dylan (me) and weirdo literature (also me!) Totally worthless for just about anyone else.
"that's right-a lot of people would feel guilty & close their eyes to such a happening-there are people that interrupt & interfere in other people's lives-only God can be everywhere at the same Time & Space-you are human-sad & silly as it may seem"
