Bob Dylan called 'arrogant' over silence about winning Nobel Prize


A member of the Swedish Academy that awarded the 2016 Nobel Prize in literature to Bob Dylan says the American singer-songwriter's silence since receiving the honor is "impolite and arrogant." The literature prize and five other Nobel Prizes will be officially conferred in Stockholm on Dec. 10, the anniversary of award founder Alfred Nobel's death in 1896. Only two people have declined a Nobel Prize in literature. Although Dylan has not commented publicly on winning the Nobel, privacy and the price of fame have been themes in his music. Each of this year's Nobel Prizes is worth 8 million Swedish kronor, or about $930,000.
