In the decades since he recorded his first album; Leonard Cohen has evolved into an international cult figure--and one of the most literate; daring; and affecting poet-songwriters in the world. Stranger Music presents a magnificent cross-section of Cohens work--including the legendary songs "Suzanne;" "Sisters of Mercy;" "Bird on a Wire;" "Famous Blue Raincoat;" "Im Your Man;" and "The Future"; selections from such books as Flowers for Hitler; Beautiful Losers; and Death of a Ladys Man; and eleven previously unpublished poems. This volume demonstrates definitively that Cohen is a writer of dazzling intelligence and a force that transcends genres.From the Trade Paperback edition.

Essential readingBy RichardOne of the few indispensable books for any uni student studying Urban Design or Urban Planning on BA or Masters courses.1 of 3 people found the following review helpful. good book. bad kindle ed.By M. GeorgeSo far this is a great book. Just a quick note on the kindle edition; No page numbers! or table of contents! for me this was a text book assigned for a class where certain pg. numbers are assigned readings. additionally you cant cite this book in an academic paper from the kindle addition without pg. numbers. Again. this is in no way a negative review of the content of this book.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful.
