A freewheelin' time

a memoir of Greenwich Village in the sixties

'I met Bob Dylan in 1961 when I was 16 years old and he was 20 ' Thus begins Suze Rotolo's memoir of her life with Dylan in New York during the tumultuous early years of the Sixties, revealing the wonderfully romantic story of their sweet but sometimes wrenching love affair. It is she who looks out pensively from the famous cover of his album the Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. She has never written about that time - an extraordinary brief epoch of artistic and political ferment in Greenwich Village where she was not merely a central witness but also a participant - until now. This is a narrative of a place and time when art, culture and politics all seemed to be conspiring to make America freer, better and more equitable
