"There are very, very few people who occupy the ground that Leonard Cohen walks on." --BONO

The Flame is the final work from Leonard Cohen, the revered poet and musician whose fans span generations and whose work is celebrated throughout the world. Featuring poems, excerpts from his private notebooks, lyrics, and hand-drawn self-portraits, The Flame offers an unprecedentedly intimate look inside the life and mind of a singular artist.

A reckoning with a life lived deeply and passionately, with wit and panache, The Flame is a valedictory work.

"This volume contains my father's final efforts as a poet," writes Cohen's son, Adam Cohen, in his foreword. "It was what he was staying alive to do, his sole breathing purpose at the end."

Leonard Cohen died in late 2016. But "each page of paper that he blackened," in the words of his son, "was lasting evidence of a burning soul."

About Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen (1934–2016) was born in Westmount, Quebec, and published his first poetry collection, Let Us Compare Mythologies (Contact Press, 1956), as part of the McGill Poetry Series while an undergraduate. The Spice-Box of Earth (McClelland and Stewart, 1961) and Flowers for Hitler (1964) followed before he turned to music, releasing his debut album in 1967. He received the Prince of Asturias Award for Literature in 2011 and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2008. Appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada in 1991, he was elevated to Companion, the order's higher grade, in 2003.
