30 Books to Read Before You Die (Pt. 9)
So, we're on Part 9 of our journey into literature, and I really hope you've been keeping up with the reading! I'm joking, I only expect to give you at least one new thing to read, and if from these nine lists (so far!) you've gotten one new book to read, then I have done a perfect job. The reason why I make these lists really is because I don't really have anyone to talk to about books, and so I just write things about them.

30 Books to Read Before You Die (Pt. 8)
As we get on in this list, I hope I have at least suggested you one new thing to read that you wouldn't have if not for these lists here! If you've been following, you would've read the following seven parts by now (and if you haven't then click the links!)...

30 Books to Read Before You Die (Pt. 6)
As we make our way through the further parts of this series, you may see some of the books becoming more and more obscure. If you haven't checked out the previous section (which is ripe with 19th-century European stuff!) then click here to do so.

30 Books to Read Before You Die (Pt.5)
There are still so many books to get through, and as we speak I have created more and more as a part of my list that is ever-expanding. I love this journey you're coming on with me through various books that you should definitely add to your reading list for those you want to read before you die.

30 Books to Read Before You Die (Pt. 4)
If you haven't read the previous part to this then I suggest you do so by clicking here. We are now on part four, which is numbers 91-120, and I would love that, if you're following along with these, you tell me what you think of the books so far. I'm trying to keep a range of old and modern texts in there, so that it doesn't become monotonous. But then again, reading a good book or two is very rarely monotonous.

Bob Dylan’s Best Epic Narratives
Bob Dylan is not only known as the God of Folk for his production of some of the most incredibly memorable protest anthems of the 1960s. He is also known as the God of Folk, because of his output of the epic narrative. As you’ve probably noticed whilst listening to Bob Dylan’s discography, he is a prolific writer, and tends to write some of his songs at a length of ten minutes or more. Some of his songs consist of multiple characters, an entire cast of different people representing different things. Some of his songs consist of fewer characters, but are very heavy on the story—forcing the listener to listen to the song properly if they are to engage with the narrator on any level. With Bob Dylan’s discography there isn’t really a song that can be considered “background music” as every single track invites you into the atmosphere to look at various characters, themes, stories, plots, ideas, concepts, and critiques in a way that only Bob Dylan knows how to write.
