  • "L'édition rassemble la traduction de la totalité des recueils de poèmes publiés par l'auteur montréalais anglo-juif, d'origine russe, depuis 1956. Ont été exclus les poèmes qui sont devenus des chansons, et ajoutés des "poèmes épars" (p. 267-283). Le style de l'auteur, le plus souvent, conjugue cynisme et lyrisme, lucidité et méditation, sensualité et culture hassidim. [SDM]."
  • "Vaste choix de poèmes et de chansons tirés de ses recueils par l'auteur lui-même avec plusieurs inédits. Aucun commentaire n'accompagne cette édition."

  • "With the appearance of his first record album in 1967, Leonard Cohen - already well known in his native Canada as a poet and novelist - was introduced to audiences in the United States, where he quickly took his place among the preeminent singer/songwriters of the time. Over the years, and through the release of eight more albums, Cohen gained a reputation as a dazzlingly literate and consistently daring songwriter. His status as a cult artist grew and solidified, not only in North America but all across Europe; singers of enormously diverse styles recorded his songs; his influence could be charted in every new wave of recording artists that followed his emergence. In 1988 the release of his album I'm Your Man thrust him back into the mainstream spotlight; and his latest recording, The Future, has brought him renewed widespread acclaim as one of our most enduring poet/songwriters. Now Stranger Music brings together, for the first time in one volume, a generous selection of Leonard Cohen's song lyrics and poetry. Stranger Music reveals the range and depth of Cohen's work. And it is a long-overdue celebration of his extraordinary gift for language that speaks with rare clarity, passion, and timelessness."
