Description

Leonard Cohen's final work, The Flame, is a stunning collection of poems that showcase his full range of lyricism. Selected and ordered by the author in the final months of his life, this book features lyrics, prose pieces, and illustrations, as well as an extensive selection from Cohen's notebooks.

By turns devastatingly sad and winningly strange, these poems offer a profound look inside the life and mind of a singular artist and thinker. This collection is a valedictory work, a reckoning with a life lived deeply and passionately, with wit and panache.

A unique opportunity to experience the poet's inner world, The Flame is an enormously powerful final chapter in Cohen's storied literary career.
