RE: What he does is more akin to literature than poetry
Posted by PAR on June 6, 2017 at 17:28:02:
Sir Andrew Motion, the previous British Poet Laureate, many years before the Nobel citation, described Bob Dylan as the world's greatest living poet who is not a poet* (meaning that he is a poet though not conventionally described as one).
* I guess he meant poet writing in English.
