Poet, novelist, songwriter, singer, cult figure to a generation - all these describe Leonard Cohen, who eloquent, and very public search for what he calls a "state of grace" has enabled him to escape the restrictions of genres while becoming perhaps the best known of Canadian poets. This volume incisively examines Leonard Cohen's work, following his influences and inventions with the sensitivity required to isolate and define an integrated poetic vision. The Favourite Game and Beautiful Losers receive particular attention, but all Cohen's writings - novels, poems, songs, "postscripts and preludes" - are covered, from Let Us Compare Mythologies (1956) to Death of a Ladies' Man (1977)
