A Stirring Mosaic of Leonard Cohen: Poet, Lyricist and Artist

Dive into The Flame, a profound exploration of the celebrated poet and musician, Leonard Cohen. This final work, hailed as a top read by Vogue, TIME, and The Washington Post, offers a rich blend of his life's work, sure to ignite the imagination of Cohen's enduring fans and newcomers alike.

With his works spanning generations and continents, Cohen is a remarkable figure who continues to captivate audiences--his ground trodden upon by "very, very few" (Bono).

The Flame provides a deeply personal view of Cohen, weaving a vivid tapestry of poems, diary excerpts, lyrics, and intimate hand-drawn self-portraits. This trailblazing collection presents a multi-faceted view of a life lived passionately.

"This volume contains my father's final efforts as a poet," writes Cohen's son, Adam Cohen, in his foreword. "It was what he was staying alive to do, his sole breathing purpose at the end."

Whether you're a lyricist, musician, or a Cohen devotee, The Flame is a glowing tribute to Leonard Cohen that's sure to inspire and captivate.

About the Author

Leonard Cohen was born in Montreal in 1934. Soon after graduating from McGill University, he published his first collection of poems, Let Us Compare Mythologies, in 1956. He would go on to publish a dozen more volumes of poetry, including Book of Longing, and two novels, The Favourite Game and Beautiful Losers. A hugely influential and critically acclaimed singer and songwriter, Cohen released fourteen studio albums between 1967 and 2016, the last being You Want It Darker, for the title track of which he posthumously won the Grammy for Best Rock Performance. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2008 and the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2010, and was honored with a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2010 Grammys. He won both the Prince of Asturias Award for Literature and the Glenn Gould Prize in 2011, and the first PEN New England Song Lyrics of Literary Excellence Award in 2012. Cohen died in Los Angeles on November 7, 2016.
