Can Rory Cardinal close the biggest deal of his life? Awoken from a three-year malaise, inmate Rory Cardinal is faced with the possibility of an early parole. But unlike the rest of his fellow inmates doing three-to-five years, the only chance he has for an early departure is to convince a majority of the Commonwealths seven-member parole board. Will his adept use of denial be stripped away? Will he, perhaps for the first time, share in the disgruntlement and outright betrayal many of his customers experienced? That might be his only way out. The question is: Will his ego allow it? Or will he succumb to his pride and willingly serve out the remaining two years of his sentence? Relive Rory Cardinals rise to the top in this unscrupulous industry and to his inevitable collapse that alienated him from the very profession he called home.
A joyous and poignant exploration of the meaning of fandom, the healing power of art, and the importance of embracing what moves you, “The Dylanologists is juicy…artfully told…and an often moving chronicle of the ecstasies and depravities of obsession” (New York Daily News).

l carcere, come istituzione e come struttura operativa per il controllo e l’eliminazione della devianza e della lotta sociale, incarna senza veli o mistificazioni il cuore del rapporto tra Stato e proletari. È prima di tutto la resistenza e la solidarietà dei prigionieri che spezza la sua funzione. Il ciclo di lotte nelle carceri italiane durante gli anni ’70 e ’80 ha segnato un passaggio importante e molto significativo, come non c’era mai stato prima, per durata, organizzazione, coraggio politico e personale, per le vittorie conseguite, ma anche per il prezzo pagato. Questo libro ha un suo sguardo, tutto interno alle dinamiche di lotta e alla quotidianità, prezioso, concreto, personale, vivo. Guarda letteralmente da dentro a quelle lotte, illuminando la scena dal cuore, dalle teste, dalle celle, dai corridoi, qualche volta dai muri scavalcati da questi proletari. Non è – e non vuol essere – uno sguardo completo, esprime il punto di vista di un percorso carcerario, un percorso importante che ha corpo e sangue, vivo e immediato proprio come è stato vissuto, ora per ora, compagno per compagno, vittoria per vittoria, sconfitta per sconfitta.
