Bob Dylan will finally accept his Nobel Prize for Literature in person this weekend (April 1-2), when he arrives in Sweden to perform at a pair of Stockholm dates. Professor Sara Danius, permanent secretary of the Swedish Academy, confirmed Dylan’s involvement in a blog entry entitled “Good News About Dylan.” “The Swedish Academy is very much looking forward to the weekend and will show up at one of the performances,” she writes. “Please note that no Nobel Lecture will be held. The Academy has reason to believe that a taped version will be sent at a later point.” Danius goes on to explain that the meet-up will likely be one of minimal spectacle: “The setting will be small and intimate, and no media will be present; only Bob Dylan and members of the Academy will attend, all according to Dylan’s wishes.” Copyright(c) 2017 RTTNews.com.
