Dylan’s Chronicles reads like a back-alley hymn — elliptical, intimate, and unbothered by linear time. He drifts through the smoky corners of New York, fame, and folk mythology, showing how art, accident, and obsession collide to make a voice that can’t be tamed. It’s less about telling his story than about tracing the strange machinery of creativity itself — the moment when words catch fire.
