by Bob Dylan (Author)

The Philosophy of Modern Song is Bob Dylan's first book of new writing since 2004's Chronicles: Volume One--and since winning the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016.

Dylan, who began working on the book in 2010, offers his extraordinary insight into the nature of popular music. He writes over sixty essays focusing on songs by other artists, spanning from Stephen Foster to Elvis Costello, and in between ranging from Hank Williams to Nina Simone. He analyzes what he calls the trap of easy rhymes, breaks down how the addition of a single syllable can diminish a song, and even explains how bluegrass relates to heavy metal. These essays are written in Dylan's unique prose. They are mysterious and mercurial, poignant and profound, and often laugh-out-loud funny. And while they are ostensibly about music, they are really meditations and reflections on the human condition. Running throughout the book are nearly 150 carefully curated photos as well as a series of dream-like riffs that, taken together, resemble an epic poem and add to the work's transcendence.

In 2020, with the release of his outstanding album Rough and Rowdy Ways, Dylan became the first artist to have an album hit the Billboard Top 40 in each decade since the 1960s. The Philosophy of Modern Song contains much of what he has learned about his craft in all those years, and like everything that Dylan does, it is a momentous artistic achievement.

Gentle, Effective Cleanser That Leaves Skin Feeling Clean Without Drying
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: 13.52 Fl Oz (Bottle)
I’ve been using the La Roche-Posay Toleriane Purifying Foaming Facial Cleanser for a bit now, and it’s been a really solid addition to my routine. The cleanser has a light, foaming texture that spreads easily and does a great job removing dirt and oil without being harsh. It leaves my skin feeling clean and refreshed, but not tight or overly dry, which is something I’ve struggled with using other face washes. I also appreciate that it’s gentle enough for sensitive skin. There’s no strong fragrance, and it hasn’t caused any irritation or breakouts. It feels like a good balance between being effective and still mild enough for daily use. The bottle is simple and easy to use, and a little goes a long way, so it should last a while.

Gentle, Effective Cleanser With Great Value Refills
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: 13.52 Fl Oz (Refill)
Very reliable cleanser with clean formula and refill option. Fragrance-free, and doesn't irritate my skin. Excellent for daily use. The refill bag is a bit hard to navigate though, kind of floppy to pour from, and the cap broke of for me the first time.

Good Option for Sensitive Skin.
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: 13.52 Fl Oz (Bottle), Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: 13.52 Fl Oz (Bottle)
I've been using this foaming facial cleanser for a few months and overall, I've had a good experience with it so far. I usually use it at night, and I start by removing my makeup with micellar water, then use this cleanser in the shower, followed by moisturizer. One thing I will say is that even though my skin tends to lean oily, this cleanser does leave a bit of a tight, slightly dry feeling on my skin after washing. I wouldn't really describe it as super moisturizing, but it's not a dealbreaker for me since I always follow up with moisturizer and it fixes that feeling right away. It also hasn't caused any irritation or breakouts for me, which is a big plus since I do have sensitive skin. It definitely feels non-greasy and very lightweight. The texture comes out as a gel, but it foams up really easily once you start using it. I also don't notice much fragrance in it, which makes it a good option for sensitive skin overall. Overall, I'd say it's a good product to try out. Just be aware that it can feel a little drying afterward!

Good quality product and value for the money
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: 13.52 Fl Oz (Bottle)
I girl loves this product so much that I always buy one before the one been used runs out. Aside from all the vitamins and minerals included in this formula, one can tell how good the product is by just using for a short period of time. It has never irritated my skin nor my girl’s. The texture is perfect “ not to runny/ not to lose. The container is mostly a value pack, so it is not very portable, but at the end I prefect a big size to make up my value for the money. I recommend the product and will continue buying it.

Skin feels so clean
Size: 13.52 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: 13.52 Fl Oz (Bottle)
This cleanser is awesome for oily skin. Little to no scent and face feels soooo clean after. Very convenient pump and love buying in this larger size. If you have dry/combo skin, this can be a little too drying. Luckily, LRP has a version of this for dry skin that's incredible, too!
