    What popular songwriter and performer wrote the 1971 novel "Tarantula?"

    Question #109437. Asked by 29CoveRoad. (Oct 04 09 2:42 PM)

    		Bob Dylan.

    Bob Dylan wrote a novel in those heady days, too. Tarantula, written between 1965 and 1966-the year of "Like a Rolling Stone" and "Judas!" and the motorcycle crash-wasn't officially published until 1971, possibly because Dylan forgot about it for a while, and possibly because the book doesn't have a single period in it: "aretha/ crystal jukebox queen of hymn & him diffused in drunk transfusion wound would heed sweet soundwave crippled . . ."
