Summary
‘John Brown’ by Bob Dylan is a poem about John Brown, a young soldier, and his mother. Dylan depicts the nature of war through their conversation.
‘John Brown’ by Bob Dylan presents an imaginary story about John Brown who has become a soldier and how he gets injured in an “old-fashioned war”. The conversation between the mother of John Brown and his soldier son depicts how common people respect the magnitude of such a nationalistic service. But, in the end, they both suffer, the son physically and his mother mentally, for the war in which they have invested so much fascination and passion. Ironically, the war offers them some medals only along with lifelong suffering and agony.
