Suze Rotolo, a girlfriend to Bob Dylan and a muse, as well (according to this obituary), has died. I found out through an interesting way: the traffic on my blog has spiked considerably, with about 11,000 people hitting Dot Dot Dot in the last few hours. (For comparison's sake, I had 3,400 page views yesterday.) A glance at the dashboard showed me almost all traffic is pointing to this very slight blog item, which consisted of five random facts, one of them being that Rotolo pronounced her first name like "Suzy." What the people are coming for, though, is the image, which ranks at or near the top if you just Google "Suze Rotolo." (At least today. The image is the familiar shot of Rotolo snuggling up to Dylan for the cover of the Freewheelin' Bob Dylan. I believe the shot was taken in winter, near their apartment in Greenwich Village.
