«Leonard Cohen: life» – a thorough account of the extraordinary life of one of the most significant and influential artists of our time. Renowned music journalist Sylvia Simmons traces Cohen's journey from Montreal, where he was born, to London, to... the Greek island of Hydra, and further – to New York in the sixties, where he began his music career. She explores the trajectory of Cohen's brilliant creative path, including his retreat to a monastery in the mid-nineties and his triumphant return to performing fifteen years later. Wherever fate led Cohen – to the alleys of Mumbai, to countless hotel rooms – Simmons diligently investigates all the details, all the contradictions of Cohen's life and brilliantly describes the creativity, soul, depth, and talent of the artist and the man who still moves people today like no one else.
