"Book of Longing" is Leonard Cohen's astonishing collection of poems, the
first since "Book of Mercy". Leonard Cohen made his name as a poet
before he came to worldwide attention as a singer and songwriter. "Book
of Longing", was twenty years in the making and written in Montreal,
Mumbai and during his retirement in Mt Baldy.
Enhanced by Cohen's own playful and provocative illustrations, these
poems show the full range of one of the most influential and enigmatic
writers of his generation.
