The artist, musician, and poet Leonard Cohen was deeply learned in Judaism and Christianity. the spiritual traditions underpinning his self-identity and the way he made sens of the world. His lyrics are studded with Jewish and Christian allusions drawn from the Bible, Talmud, and Kabbalah. In this book Harry Freedman, a leading author of cultural and religious history, explores the mystical and spiritual sources Cohen drew upon, discusses their original context and the stories and ideas behind them. Born into a prominent and scholarly Jewish family in Montreal, Canada, Cohen originally aspired to become a poet, before turning to song writing and eventually recording his own compositions. Later, he became immersed in Zen Buddhism, moving in 1990 to a Zen monastery on Mount Baldy, California where he remained for some years. Returning to live shows after financial difficulties, Cohen performed several worldwide tours in later life, including concerts in Dublin and London. He died, with immaculate timing, on the day before Donald Trump was elected in 2016, leaving behind him an artistic legacy that will be felt for generations to come. Leonard Cohen: The Mystical Roots of Genius looks deeply into the imagination of one of the greatest singers and lyricists of our time. Departing from traditional biographical approaches, Freedman explores song by song how Cohen reworked myths and prayers, legends and allegories. By the end the reader will be left with a powerful understanding of Cohen's story, together with a far broader insight into the mystical origins of his inimitable work.
