A long way from Hibbing, Minnesota.
Sometimes the Nobels get it right.
Mostly they don’t.
Remember this Lady.

In 2007 Irena was up for the Nobel Peace Prize. She was not selected.
Al Gore won, for a slide show on Global Warming.
Later another politician,
Barack Hussein Obama, won for his work as a community organizer for ACORN.
Yeah, exactly.
Yup. The Nobel Prize, once a well respected award, is irrelevant.
I don’t like Dylan much. It seems to me he’s still popular because there are so many old hippies that fondly look back on their youth and STD’s with nostalgia. I could be wrong of course and it wouldn’t be the first time.
Depends if you like poetry, I guess, Brown.
Phillip Larkin was a poet who thoroughly deserved a Nobel Prize but being British he had the misfortune to write during years when English writers weren’t lauded. This trend finally reversed when Golding became a recipient. Larkin’s works speaks as crisply as it did 50+ years ago.
At least our STD’s could be treated with penicillin.
I’ve always loved this one – and awesome lyrics. I think it was recorded in the midst of his born-again phase.

Dylan wrote about how he saw the world from a MALE perspective – and that folks is good enough for me!
And Nadine Gordimer saw it from perspective of someone who hated Afrikaners. And the world believed all her shit…and gave her a prize?
The world wanted to believe that crap, therefore it was true.
Prophetic?

“At midnight all the agents
and the superhuman crew
come out and round up everyone
who knows more than they do…”
The Nobel Peace Prize has long been a joke when matched to the prizes in the other categories. (Tutu, Gore, Obama etc.) I have little time for Dylan. I think he is simply a glib word merchant. It appears the prize in literature is to follow the peace prize. The writers who missed this accolade and deserved to win are many.
Dylan is simultaneously beyond and beneath me because I’m a simple country girl. Hands up. Pat Green, who I first discovered on Fox news, is the real deal man for me. He’s not drugged to the max, the MSM probably reviles him, he sings about family values with a smile on his face. I like that.
I place Dylan’s “glib” wordsmithing above so much of what passes for “literature” – the deliberately opaque, clever scribblings of pseuds subsisting on the public tit, which are so often judged by fellow pseuds and wankers and pronounced important.
I do.
