This anthology contains a cross section of his five decades of influential work, including such legendary songs as "Suzanne," "Sisters of Mercy," "Bird on the Wire," "Famous Blue Raincoat," and "I'm Your Man" and searingly memorable poems from his many acclaimed poetry collections, including <i>Flowers for Hitler, Beautiful Losers, </i>and <i>Death of a Lady's Man.</i> Encompassing the erotic and the melancholy, the mystical and the sardonic, this volume showcases a writer of dazzling intelligence and live-wire emotional immediacy.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Leonard Cohen</b>'s artistic career began in 1956 with the publication of his first book of poetry, <i>Let Us Compare Mythologies</i>.
