The Flame: Poems and Selections from Notebooks - Cohen, Leonard
As New; The Flame is a stunning collection of Leonard Cohen's last poems, selected and ordered by the author in the final months of his life. Featuring lyrics, prose pieces, and illustrations, the book also contains an extensive selection from Cohen's notebooks, which he kept in poetic form throughout his life, and offers an unprecendently intimate look inside the life and mind of a singular artist and thinker. an enormously powerful final chapter in Cohen;s storied literary career, this volume showcases the full range of Leonard Cohen;s lyricism, from the exquisitely transcendent to the darkly funny. By turns devastatingly sad and winningly strange, these are the works of a poet and lyricist who set out to explore our darkest questions and came back wanting, yearning for more.
