If Bob Dylan continues to maintain his silence on his recent Nobel Prize in Literature, he may miss out on the $900,000 in award money that accompanies the prize. According to Reuters, prize winners must deliver a lecture–which could take the form of a concert in Dylan’s case–within six months of the December 10 awards ceremony in order to receive the prize money. “That is what we ask for in return,“ Nobel Foundation spokeswoman Jonna Petterson said, adding, “Yes, we are trying to find an arrangement that suits the laureate (Dylan).“
