Episode 24: Bob Dylan, the Stranger

This week, we attempt to get to know the most elusive side of Bob Dylan’s persona: the Stranger. A look at some of the different contexts in which the figure of the stranger appears, we trace Dylan’s changing attitude towards being a “complete unknown”.

Note: Although it would have been worth mentioning in this context, there unfortunately wasn't enough time to talk about the 2003 film Masked & Anonymous, which he starred in and reportedly co-wrote. Another time!
