From: "The Australian" Weekend Review, March 28--29, 1992. An article by Imre Saluszinsky, Senior Lecturer in English at the University of Newcastle (NSW, Australia).
Evasive about many things, Dylan has been perfectly open about his early influences: "I came out of the wilderness, and just naturally fell in with the Beat scene . . . it was Jack Kerouac, Ginsberg, Corso and Ferlinghetti . . . I got in at the tail end of that and it was magic."
