Ernest Hemingway and Hart Crane were born on the same day (7/21/1899); both died from suicide.

Now it's our turn to pursue literature. Perhaps it will be wise to approach the subject cautiously.

The US had a few artists on their "lists" that had early, almost suspicious, deaths. I mean, does no one think it's weird that Richard Farina died in a motorcycle accident that someone else was driving, and then Bob Dylan had a motorcycle accident soon after, and then just coincidentally stopped writing protest songs?

Bob Dylan stopped writing protest songs two years before his motorcycle accident.

I hope you didn't depend on AI for that rebuttal, anon

What is the 21st month?

It's widely understood that he stepped away from protest songs in frustration at being pigeonholed as a protest singer no later than Another Side of Bob Dylan in 1964. Some of the material on Bringing it All Back Home and even Highway 61 Revisited comments on social issues but in increasingly oblique ways. Yes they're socially minded but to say that "Maggie's Farm" or "It's Alright Ma" are "protest songs" is a massive distortion of the musical context of the time. There's basically nothing recognizably protest-y on Blonde on Blonde, even the handful of lines on "Visions of Johanna, "and that was the last album he released before the 1966 accident. So why would the feds try to kill him then and not in 1963? You're talking out your ass anon, didn't you even watch that zoomerbait biopic that came out last year?

Yeah, think a bit more on this. One month from today, make a thread with your new thoughts, and I'll start to tell you about Pynchon.

>>24883045
I didn't mention the zoomerbait movie as a source. Christ, you're thick.

I retract my one month offer. I can tell you're satisfied with the shadows on the wall and that's well and fine. I hear they tell pretty good stories, anyhow
