CHRONICLES VOLUME ONE: THE EXAM
The TV film director, music journalist and Dylan fan Mick Gold e-mailed me ten days or so ago, and included this snippet of news:
"My 16 year old did her GCSE English paper this week. The prose extract in 'comprehension', where you had to answer questions about the writer's intentions, was from Chronicles Vol. 1. Something about being misunderstood as the 'voice of a generation'..."
[The BBC 4 series Masterpieces of the East, shown Wednesdays at 8.30pm on British TV, includes two of Gold's films. The first - TIPPOO'S TIGER (A very short history of imperialism) - is tomorrow night, June 20; on July 18 comes THE HAMZANAMA (with Salman Rushdie).]
