Carl Posted October 24, 2016 Report Share Posted October 24, 2016 It was big news when Bob Dylan won the Nobel Prize For Literature. But since the announcement on October 13, there has been no word from Dylan. One of the most laconic men in entertainment, it's no surprise that Dylan didn't gush over this. His silence is making a statement and stirring discussion in the same way his songs have done for decades. He doesn't need yet another award to secure his legacy, so there's no onus on him to accept or even acknowledge it, which becomes a fine bit of performance art and a great sociological experiment: Can you blame a guy for snubbing an award he didn't ask for? Does he have a stack of emails to get through before he gets to that one? After this plays out, maybe he'll write a song about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
