Blurb
Book of Longing is Leonard Cohen's astonishing new collection of poems, the first since Book of Mercy was published nearly three decades ago.
Leonard Cohen made his name as a poet before he came to worldwide attention as a singer and songwriter. Book of Longing, his new collection of poetry, was twenty years in the making and written in Montreal, Mumbai and during his retirement in Mt Baldy. Enhanced by Cohen's own playful and provocative illustrations, these poems show the full range of one of the most influential and enigmatic writers of his generation.
Biography
Leonard Cohen, geboren 1934 in Montreal, als Sohn jüdischer Eltern, ist Sänger und Musiker - und vor allem ein großer Poet. Er begann seine künstlerische Laufbahn 1956 mit dem Gedichtband "Let Us Compare Mythologies" und veröffentlichte zahlreiche Bücher, darunter zwei Romane, und 17 Schallplatten. Im März 2008 wurde Cohen in die Rock and Roll Hall of Fame aufgenommen. 2011 erhielt er den spanischen "Prinz-von-Asturien-Preis" für Literatur.
