Review
"A treasure trove for Leonard Cohen fans--the dazzling, wide-ranging collection of interviews that Jeff Burger has unearthed not only offers the songwriter's story in his own words, but reveals that Cohen's language in conversation can be every bit as magnificent as his lyrics."--Alan Light, author of The Holy or the Broken: Leonard Cohen, Jeff Buckley & the Unholy Ascent of "Hallelujah"
"That Cohen is brilliant is no revelation, but to witness that brilliance so lovingly expressed over the years is pure joy. That such a mind exists is hard to fathom, yet here's the proof. He's as funny as a great humorist, as wise as a scholar, and speaks in parables and poems almost as perfect as his songs. This is a great and rare window into the dedication it takes to be a true artist in modern times. Engrossing, entertaining, and endlessly inspirational."
--Paul Zollo, author of Songwriters on Songwriting
"[Cohen] is articulate, gracious, clever, and revealing . . . If you have any interest in Leonard Cohen, this volume offers not only insights into the Canadian singer-songwriter and his work but also a delightfully entertaining read."--Allan Showalter, 1HeckofaGuy.com (Cohen fan site)
"...Burger’s discerning editorial hand selects those conversations with Cohen that offer insights into his music. For longtime fans as well as newcomers to Cohen’s work." —Publishers Weekly
"This book will appeal to Cohen aficionados and researchers. Readers will gain a wealth of information about his take on life..." —Library Journal
"This is a must for Cohen fans." —Starred review, Booklist

比傳記好讀多瞭的訪談集。感謝上帝在他人生的第三章挪走瞭抑鬱的烏雲。a legacy for a lifetime
評分太完美瞭吧。596頁的書,10天。看完最後一個字,聽的是鬍德夫老師版本的Hallelujah最後三遍的最後一個音符。書的最後一段說的就是,人們已經挺煩瞭HALLELUJAH不,科恩說應該靜一靜瞭,然後又說,我還是很高興聽到在唱啊。。有筆記,很長,看來得挪到評論區慢慢寫瞭。當然,先輪廓說一遍,極端贊美科恩的創作能力,高度欣賞他的唱,這是從始至終的。然後,在這個基礎上,不喜歡也不會接近1997年之前的科恩,很喜歡但仍然不會去接近1997年之後的科恩。。具體去評論區寫長文去。因為全是訪談,自身說齣來的綫索,顯然比傳記更為可靠得多。所以看得非常過癮。基本一字不落。
