Garbage in, garbage out, 28 Mar 2006
By baramarie - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dylan to English Dictionary (Paperback)
This book came from Dylan's garbage and that's what it is...
just a lot of words "interpreted" by this man who has never
had a conversation with his subject. He has traded on Dylan
for years and has nothing NOTHING to contribute to any understanding of Bob Dylan. Listen to Dylan's work yourself
and/or read real books about the man if you want to acquire
some understanding of this artist.
Whatever you paid for this book.....you were robbed!

ARE MISSING PUZZLE PIECES IN THIS BOOK OR IS WEBERMAN A CROOK?, 31 Jan 2006
By ParkingMeter - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dylan to English Dictionary (Paperback)
I first came across the Dylan To English Dictionary while reading the International Herald Tribune in Paris about two weeks ago. The author of the article that originally came from the NY Times seemed to have liked the book as the article was titled, "The Answer is Blowin In This Book" so when I returned to the US I purchased it despite the fact that I have never been a big fan of its author, privacy-invader Weberman. I read the introduction then looked at various words and the verses that were interpreted some of which I was familiar with from listening to Dylan. They made sense and when I looked up the words that made them make sense these words made sense. But then I would have to go on and on to really find out if IT ALL MADE SENSE and this were impossible. So I made that leap of faith and zowey, Weberman seems to have somehow gotten into Dylan's mind as a lot of these interpretations follow Dylan's life while others reveal a life that Weberman has either imagined or exposed.

the highest level esoteric truth about dylan, 1 Dec 2005
By William D. King "Dennis King" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Dylan to English Dictionary (Paperback)
This is a terrific masterpiece of N-dimensional analysis. If you want to understand the esoteric inner meaning of Dylan's lyrics, steal this book! If you want to grasp the mundane surface meaning of Dylan's lyrics, purloin this book! If you want to understand how Dylan communicates with the mothership, grab this book and run! If you want to learn how to get even with Dylan after he chased you down the street with a baseball bat simply because you were engaging in innocent garbological research, legally, on a public sidewalk outside his house, shoplift this book! If you want to learn why AJ is convinced Dylan is the greatest American poet since Ginsburg even though Dylan won't talk to AJ, burglarize the publisher's warehouse and scamper away with this book! If you want to find out why Dylan wants to send AJ to the Prison of Askaban for eternal torment by dementers, stick up Barnes & Noble and do your getaway in a stolen police car with this book! If you want to know what Dylan was doing on the grassy knoll with E. Howard Hunt and Lyndon LaRouche in 1963, well, get this book by hook or crook and do your own research--go where no Dylanologist has ever gone before, even AJ Weberman--into the farthest reaches of Dylan's occult code language (and the inmost depths of Dylan's garbage can if it's not locked)!
Listmania!
