Leonard Cohen, one of the most admired performers of the last half century, has had a stranger-than-fiction, roller-coaster ride of a life. Here he tells his story in his own words, via more than 50 interviews conducted world-wide between 1966 and 2012. In the book - which includes a foreword by singer Suzanne Vega and eight pages of rarely seen photos - the artist talks about 'Bird on the Wire', 'Hallelujah', and his other classic songs.
