NEW YORK

Bob Dylan’s writer is providing refunds for a $600 particular version of his new e book, “The Philosophy of Trendy Track,” acknowledging that the allegedly “hand-signed” copies weren’t individually inscribed. “To those that bought The Philosophy Of Trendy Track restricted version, we wish to apologize,” Simon & Schuster introduced in an announcement posted on Nov. 20 on Instagram.

“Because it seems, the limited-edition books do comprise Bob’s unique signature, however in a penned duplicate kind. We’re addressing this instantly by offering every purchaser with a right away refund.”

Simon & Schuster’s assertion got here after days of complaints from prospects, who by social media had in contrast their copies and located the autographs suspiciously alike. The books had arrived with a letter from Simon & Schuster CEO Jonathan Karp, vouching for the signature’s authenticity.

“The Philosophy of Trendy Track,” through which Dylan assesses compositions starting from Hank Williams “Your Cheatin’ Coronary heart” to Jackson Browne’s “The Pretender,” was printed Nov. 1.
