This title in other formats:Book of Mercyby Leonard Cohen
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:Psalms — spoken from the heart of the modern world that resonate with an older devotional tradition. Synopsis:Popular since its original publication more than 25 years ago, Leonard Cohen's classic book of contemporary psalms is now beautifully repackaged. Internationally celebrated for his writing and his music, Leonard Cohen is revered as one of the great writers, performers, and most consistently daring artists of our time. Now beautifully repackaged, the poems in Book of Mercy brim with praise, despair, anger, doubt and trust. Speaking from the heart of the modern world, yet in tones that resonate with an older devotional tradition, these verses give voice to our deepest, most powerful intuitions.
About the AuthorLeonard Cohen was born in Montreal in 1934. While attending McGill University, he formed a country-and-western trio called The Buckskin Boys and published his first book of poetry. His career spans more than forty years, during which he has produced an impressive body of work: he has published nine books of poetry and two novels, and has made eleven records, including Various Positions, I’m Your Man, and, most recently, The Future. The soundtrack for Robert Altman’s film McCabe and Mrs. Miller comprised several of Leonard Cohen’s songs, featuring “Sisters of Mercy.” Cohen wrote, directed, and scored the 1984 video I Am a Hotel and wrote the lyrics for the Juno-Award-winning musical Night Magic. In 1991, Leonard Cohen was made an Officer of the Order of Canada. He has received three Juno Awards, and was one of six recipients of the 1993 Governor General’s Performing Arts Awards for lifetime achievement.
