A freewheelin' time

Greenwich Village, New York. Early 1960s. A scruffy-looking romantic young man and an idealistic post-adolescent of Italian descent meet and fall in love. He is Bob Dylan; her Suze Rotolo. A couple of years after starting a brief but intense relationship, they will be photographed together walking through the snowy streets of the city, resulting in one of the most iconic images in the history of popular music. It is the cover of The Freewheelin ', the acclaimed singer's second album, which would eventually elevate him to fame, with generational anthems as emblematic as Blowin' in the Wind or Don't Think Twice, It's All Right. This book is Suze Rotolo's first-person memoir. From the time he spent in the company of one of the key figures of the cultural revolution of a few years, the 60s, so steeped in idealism and utopia. A place and a time in which art and politics seemed to conspire and join forces to change life for the better. Although not alone.
