Leonard Cohen: The selfish, selfless lover
Over the years, I have not as much listened to Cohen’s songs as I have gone back to them, each time with more fervour to seek refuge.
I chanced upon Leonard Cohen when I was 18. Like all memorable encounters, I remember the details: His raspy baritone that tends to insidiously grow on you, his strange words, a woman called Suzanne – clad in rags and feathers, and a lover who claimed he had no love to give her. And yet, he was willing to travel with her, even travel blind, for the river told him that he had always been her lover.
