Book of Longing

by Leonard Cohen

Book of Longing Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Leonard Cohen wrote the poems in Book of Longing—his first book of poetry in more than twenty years—during his five-year stay at a Zen monastery on Southern California's Mount Baldy, and in Los Angeles, Montreal, and Mumbai. This dazzling collection is enhanced by the author's playful and provocative drawings, which interact in exciting, unexpected ways on the page with poetry that is timeless, meditative, and often darkly humorous. An international sensation, Book of Longing contains all the elements that have brought Cohen's artistry with language worldwide recognition.

Synopsis:

From one of the great writers, performers, and most consistently daring artists of our time comes this eagerly awaited new collection of poems, following Cohens highly acclaimed 1984 title "Book of Mercy."

About the Author

Leonard Cohen was born in Montreal in 1934. He is the author of twelve books, including, most recently, the national bestseller Book of Longing, and has released seventeen albums.
