Nick Hornby Proclaims Bob Dylan a Deity

Ohmercy Author Nick Hornby gets it correct on his blog: Dylan is god; "I'm Not There" is a fine rock film; and any time Bob's '80s albums are referenced, those of us who have memorized the work from the other decades get sheepish when it come to reciting things like the order of side 2 on "Infidels."

Comments

I'm with Nick on this. And hopefully, I can persuade some of his devoted readers to read a new novel I just penned.

It's called BLOOD ON THE TRACKS, and it's a murder-mystery. But not just any rock superstar is knocking on heaven's door. The murdered rock legend is none other than Bob Dorian, an enigmatic, obtuse, inscrutable, well, you get the picture...

Suspects? Tons of them. The only problem is they're all characters in Bob's songs.

You can get a copy on Amazon.com or go "behind the tracks" at www.bloodonthetracksnovel.com to learn more about the book.
