Johnny Depp's new publishing imprint signs Bob Dylan title

Johnny Depp will launch the Infinitum Nihil imprint in the US with publisher HarperCollins. The imprint has already signed The Unravelled Tales of Bob Dylan.

The book is based partly on interviews with Dylan by Douglas Brinkley, and aims to demystify the enigmatic singer's career.

'I pledge, on behalf of Infinitum Nihil, that we will do our best to deliver publications worthy of peoples' time, of peoples' concern, publications that might ordinarily never have breached the parapet,' said Johnny Depp in a statement. 'For this dream realized, we would like to salute HarperCollins for their faith in us and look forward to a long and fruitful relationship together.'

HarperCollins has said Johnny Depp's imprint will be for 'authentic, outspoken and visionary ideas and voices.' Another Infinitum Nihil title will be The House of Earth, a recently discovered novel by folk musician Woody Guthrie, which will be edited by Bob Dylan and historian Douglas Brinkley.
