There's a new book out by Bob Dylans long-ago paramour Suze Rotlolo that I'd like to buy in lit format.

So far I can only find it in the Sony Store and on the Mobipocket website.

Random House publishes it and their site directs me to Fictionwise, ebooks.com and Powells, but none of them has it.

Anyone have any suggestions?

I like it a lot, 4 out of 5 stars. Critics have complained that it's more about Suze than Dylan, which is fine with me. I'm not a big Dylan fan, but I cut my (musical) teeth on the Folk Boom of the 60's of which Dylan was a part and in which he came of age. So I know all about the scene and peripheral players no one knows about like Izzy Young, Dave Van Ronk, Carolyn Hester etc. Which makes it fascinating for me. As a teenager I wanted to be there in person.

An ever better book (IMHO) is Mayor of MacDougal Street by the aforementioned Dave Van Ronk. He was a 50's folk singer and one of the few who extended his career into the 60's and beyond. It's only out in paper (I HATE buying p-books now) but is well worth getting. A nice used one cost me $2.50 plus shipping.

Dave was sort of a role model for the early Dylan, and all the folkie wannabees back then. His writing style is very wry with a lot of humor about the whole foolishness of the scene back them, some of it self-directed.

He retells the interesting story of how Dylan 'stole' his verion of House of the Rising Sun and he had to quit playing it. Then the Animals had a hit of it and Dylan had to quit playing it.:)

Van Ronk was approached by Albert Grossman to become the 3rd member of a folk supergroup Grossman wanted to create. The others were Peter Yarrow and Mary Travers. Dave declined and Noel Stookey became 'Paul' of Peter Paul & Mary.

Both good books. I also enjoyed Girls Like Us, a triple bio of Carly Simon, Joni Mitchell and Carole King. And Positively 4th St, about the Baez sisters (Joan and Mimi), Richard Farina and Dylan.
