That's 88% off of the digital list price.

Why I'm posting this book: 1) I love Bob Dylan's songs; I even can enjoy listening to him sing, 2) The book's got great ratings, 3) The book's only 99 cents right now, 4) At 500 pages, this book has huge bang for the buck and punch for the pound!

Ironically/paradoxically, although the book is about a type of audio, there is no Whispersync audio narration option.
