Tremendous article from Esquire by Tom Junod about the *real* "most
interesting man on earth" and why, after 50 years, two autobiographies,
35 albums, thousands of interviews and tens of thousands of
performances, we still know nothing about him. Two of my favorite
quotes:

"Bob Dylan is either the most public private man in the world or the
most private public one."

"Dylan is not just the first and greatest intentional rock 'n' roll
poet. He's also the first great rock 'n' roll asshole. The poet expanded
the notion of what it was possible for a song to express; the asshole
shrunk the notion of what it was possible for the audience to express in
response to a song."
