An iconic poetry collection from Canadian luminary, poet and musician Leonard Cohen, containing some of his most significant verse. Several songs from the book have been set to music like By the Rivers Dark and Here It Is. The album Dear Heather also features lyrics from this book which is enhanced by Cohen's own playful and provocative illustrations. Steamy, cosmic, private, profound, colourful erotic and as sharp as flint, Cohen brings a world-weary sensibility to bare on themes of ageing, sex, sensuality and spirituality. 232pp, Penguin paperback, illus.
