With the photos by Barry Feinstein and the poems by Bob Dylan laid away to age like wine, now is a fine time to crack open this book with a foreward by Luc Sante and an introduction by Billy Collins, of all people.
The photos are sometimes raw, sometimes dark, sometimes light, always a delight, and Dylan's poems are, as Billy Collins says in the introduction (that you might almost miss; Collins and Sante don't get a mention anywhere) "marked by unexpected bursts of surrealism, lines that seem pulled out of a hat or caught falling from the sky rather than simply written down."
Hollywood Foto-Rhetoric is a coffee table book that you will actually want to sit down with and savor, one you will actually want to read.
