“The girl with Bob Dylan on the cover of Freewheelin’ broke a forty-five-year silence with this affectionate and dignified recalling of a relationship doomed by Dylan’s growing fame.” –UNCUT magazine Suze Rotolo chronicles her coming of age in Greenwich Village during the 1960s and the early days of the folk music explosion, when Bob Dylan was finding his voice and she was his muse.A shy girl from Queens, Suze was the daughter of Italian working-class Communists, growing up at the dawn of the Cold War. It was the age of McCarthy and Suze was an outsider in her neighborhood and at school. She found solace in poetry, art, and music—and in Greenwich Village, where she encountered like-minded and politically active friends. One hot July day in 1961, Suze met Bob Dylan, then a rising musician, at a concert at Riverside Church. She was seventeen, he was twenty; they were both vibrant, curious, and inseparable. During the years they were together, Dylan transformed from an obscure folk singer into an uneasy spokesperson for a generation.A Freewheelin’ Time is a hopeful, intimate memoir of a vital movement at its most creative. It captures the excitement of youth, the heartbreak of young love, and the struggles for a brighter future in a time when everything seemed possible.

When Ms. Rotolo’s book was first published, the critics' reviews I read dismissed it for being generally boring and having nothing much to say. If nothing much to say means a refusal to dish up gossip, vitriol and idle speculation about the celebrities who surrounded her, I guess they’re right. Ms. Rotolo was in the thick of the folk music scene and counted many of those later-legends among her friends. But what comes through is her straightforward interest in these people as mortal humans — far from being starstruck by any of them, she was more likely to pity them for the cross of notoriety they had to bear. Dylan himself she recognized early on as a highly flawed yet immensely talented individual and one who was ultimately tough enough and smart enough to survive the star-maker machine, if just barely. Out of respect and loyalty, she makes more allowances for Dylan’s shabby treatment of her than she ever needed to. And when she mentions instances of others behaving badly towards her, she keeps their identities to herself. Even Albert Grossman, who is generally reviled in most Dylan bios, she briefly eulogizes from her own experience as a kind, gentle bear of a man. In other words, she doesn't have much of a bad word to say about anybody.You could call Ms. Rotolo’s life unremarkable, if you grant tragedy, family disfunction, emotional crises, moments of mental instability, passion for one’s interests and brushes with greatness more typical to each of our lives than not. Prosaic or not, I found it fascinating, and it left me a profound appreciation for this woman who Dylan called the most erotic woman he ever laid eyes on, but who was so much deeper than that. I suspect that even that eroticism was inseparable from her sincerity, empathy and lust for life. She ends this autobiography when she's still in her early 20s, and I hope for the rest of her life she had more time for herself than the demands of others dictated up until then.No, it won’t quench your thirst for the inside scoop on any of the host of musicians and their entourages that consumed several years of Ms. Rotolo’s life. But read it to appreciate her own life well lived.
