As part of his world Never Ending Tour, Bob Dylan is in Italy but this time you get the chance to see the man as poet and not music star.
Bob Dylan is appearing at the Parma poetry festival, ParmaPoesia, tonight for a small concert to the lucky few who will be there.
While Dylan is known for his fame in the 60’s and 70’s, and mostly as a musician, his long career is also famous for his writing.
In fact his songs are very much in a literary, ballad style and with many albums behind him, he has also been a Nobel Prize nominee on more than one occasion.
The ParmaPoesia festival takes place today and tomorrow in various locations around the city of Parma, and includes many Italian writers such as Ennio Cavalli and Vittorino Andreoli.
