Dylan’s Nobel Prize comes for having “created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition”. The 75-year-old becomes the 259th American to have won a Nobel Prize.

He deleted a mention of the prize on his website, but later told the Telegraph it was “an amazing [and] incredible” honour and he would attend the ceremony “if at all possible”. However, he has since confirmed he won’t able to attend due to other commitments. It was then revealed that he had prepared a speech for the event, and songwriting legend Patti Smith will be attending his place.
